Debbie was a graduate of Fillmore School and was a
hardworking lady that would lend a hand whenever she could. She worked at
Robeson in Castile, Prestolite in Arcade and for over 20 years at CPAC in Leicester.
Her current job was at Perry School where she was loved by those whose lives
she touched.
She loved to work with kids, antiques, yard sales, swap
meets and the outdoors, but what she really loved most was spending time with
family at “The Pond”.

beloved grandchildren Devin Ruda and Maverick Stones, her brother Terry (Wendy)
Hodnett of Portageville, sister Lori Gibney of Belfast, sister in laws Robin

of Perry, her brothers-in-law, Jeff (Michelle) Bowles of Castile, Bobby Holley
of Wyoming, her mother-in-law, Mary (Bob Wellman) Bowles, her father-in-law,
David (Shelley) Wood of Wyoming and many nieces and nephews that she loved so
much.
