Deborah was employed at Manteca Unified School District as personal secretary for over 29 years. She enjoyed watching old movies and listening to her favorite Elvis Presley songs. She was a big fan of the Beatles as if they were the newest, greatest group in today’s music. She enjoyed trips to Pismo beach with family and friends. Deborah loved the ocean; she always felt at peace when relaxing near the water. Fishing with Deborah was always an adventure as she loved nature and the outdoors. To remember Deborah is to remember her for her grandmotherly love towards her grandchildren always making them feel as if each and every one of them were her favorite. She will be missed deeply.
