She is survived by her daughters, Vanessa (Tobias) Doughty and Natasha Harris; her beloved grandson, Baylor Doughty; and her devoted brothers, Larry (Mikki) Robinson and Frankie (Cathy) Odom. She also leaves behind her cherished dog Max, several loving cats, and many extended family members and friends.

Debra was preceded in death by her parents, Noah Lee Odom and Hazel Mott Odom.
