Debora Housman Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Brewer & Sons Funeral Homes - Brooksville Chapel on Feb. 6, 2026.
Debora "Debby" Housman, of Holiday, Florida, passed away on February 4, 2026, at the age of 57.

Debby was born in Gary, Indiana, and was a loving wife, devoted partner, and a kind, thoughtful presence to those who knew her. She shared her life with her husband, Roger Watkins, with whom she built a home grounded in care, creativity, and quiet strength.

Debby had a creative spirit and a deep appreciation for art, imagination, and the small details that make life meaningful. She was known for her warmth, her humor, and her ability to bring comfort simply by being herself. To those close to her, she was a source of companionship, loyalty, and love.

Debby had no children of her own. She cherished her beloved furbabies, Shenzi, Loki, and Lolly, who were an important part of her life and brought her comfort and joy.

She is survived by her husband, Roger Watkins, and by family members and friends who will carry her memory forward with affection and gratitude.

Debby was preceded in death by her sister, Becky Housman; her father, Robert Housman; and her mother, Joyce Housman.

No services are scheduled at this time.

Debby will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
