Deborah Banker White
August 24, 1949 – February 19, 2022

The brilliant sun sets over the glittering gulf waters as we say goodbye to Deborah (Debbie) Elaine White, the beloved wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, and sister.

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio to Raymond William and Mary Louise Betts Banker. Debbie graduated from the University of Cincinnati's College of Design, Art and Architecture.

Moving with her young family to Florida, Debbie had a busy life. Besides being the mother of four boys, she had a career in modeling, had her own Debbie's Designs shirt company and owned a Key West fashion clothing store in Delray Beach, Florida.

Debbie has been a permanent resident in Naples, Florida for the past twelve years. She loved playing golf, taking beach walks, planning beach parties and traveling. Her soulmate was Raymond William Maluta during these happy times.

Like the sparkling waters at sunset, Debbie's life reflected happiness in being with family and friends. She also enjoyed God's many beautiful creations. Her adventurous spirit and zest for life will be truly missed.

Debbie leaves behind four sons:
Gannon Larry Graue
Garrett Joseph Graue
Garner Staton Graue
Geoffrey Raymond Graue

Her beloved six grandchildren: Hunter, Taylor, Camille, Gracie, Aubrey and Larson; her two siblings: William Rupert Banker of Cincinnati, Ohio, and her dearly devoted sister Barbara Ann Curtis of Jupiter, Florida; her two adored nephews Vance and Wade Banker; her niece, Carrie Curtis; her two "special" great nieces, Addie Curtis and Maverick Banker; her forever "thoughtful" "Joyful" Harrington; and the "Love of her Life", her Ray Ray.

There will be an angel among the mermaids for Debbie will be buried in the Atlantic Ocean in a service only for the immediate family.

A "celebration of life" party is planned at the Naples Grande Golf Club on March 21st
from 6–9PM. Please wear white in honor of our Debbie.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Tunnel to Towers (T2T.org)
