Deborah L. Kipp, 67, of Ormond Beach, went to be with the Lord on February 1, 2019 at her home surrounded by her family. She was born December 7, 1951 in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Fred and Irma Lunsford. She graduated with Honors from Plantation High School and then from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. She lived in Memphis, TN while her husband attended Optometry School and worked as a legal assistant at the Udelson Law Firm. She then moved to Daytona Beach, her husbands' hometown in 1977 and worked as an assistant to the Treasurer of Cowles Communications. She loved being a wife, mother, and volunteer. She worked on many activities at First United Methodist Church, including teaching Sunday School for over 10 years. She also volunteered for many years at Seabreeze High School, and was very proud of leading the Baccalaureate Program for graduating Seniors. She was a member of Palmetto Juniors and the Junior League of Daytona Beach. Her favorite hobby was walking the Granada bridge and surrounding docks.She is survived by her loving husband of 44 years, Dr. Gregory Kipp, her daughter Lauren Funderburk and son-in-law Matthew Funderburk, her mother Irma Lunsford, her sister Lisa Glanville (husband Rev. Gary Glanville) and her brother Brian Lunsford and numerous nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her father Fred and brother Daryl. Our thanks and gratitude go out to Dr. Richard Weiss and his staff at Halifax Oncology Center for decades of excellent care. A celebration of life service will be held at First United Methodist Church of Ormond Beach at 336 S. Halifax Dr. Ormond Beach, Fl. 32176 on Saturday, February 23 at 2:00pm.

Due to the untimely death of my youngest sister right after Christmas I just found out today of Deborah's passing! She was the most beautiful sweet kind loving person I have ever known! I have many wonderful memories of our shopping excursions lunches at Heavenly Ham Mt. Dora and of course walking the beautiful Granada bridge and surrounding areas where we would talk about hopes and dreams for the future! Prayers of peace for her family and her beloved Greg and Lauren! Heaven has gained a very special beautiful angel! Love you my sister my friend always always Carol Ann Kiel! Deborah was truly a beautiful inspiration to all those that knew her or had the honor of knowing her! Thankyou for being my friend something I will always cherish!

We just heard the news of your wife and want to extend our deepest sympathy. We have known you and your father for many years and we know this is a great loss. You and I have said before some things just don't seem fair but they say God doesn't give us anything we can't handle. So we bless you and your family and we are here if you need anything. We are still your patients and your friends. She was in the best of hands with Dr Weiss. Thinking of you. Annette and Gene Hogle

Greg and Lauren,
My heart is heavy right now after just hearing of Deb's passing. We spent many happy moments together, walking the bridge and teaching Sunday School together. She was a breath of fresh air, a shining light in my heart. Her radiant smile will be with me forever. I love you all!
