Debora (Debbie) Miller went to be with the Lord on November 17, 2025. She was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Earl Clagett and LaVerne (Edith) Clagett. She is survived by her devoted husband, Charles (Mike) Miller; her siblings Earl (Skip) Clagett, Barbara (Frank) Gedeon, and Charles (Bud) Clagett; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and godchildren who cherished her deeply.

Debbie was a loving and devoted wife to Mike for 28 years. Together, they shared countless joyful moments and wonderful memories, especially at their camp, where they made lasting memories with dear friends.

Debbie had a magnetic personality, and she never met a stranger. To know her was to love her. She had a way of lighting up a room as soon as she walked into it. Her warmth, humor, and genuine kindness left a lasting impression on everyone she encountered. She had a remarkable gift for making people laugh and making them feel special. Her absence leaves a profound void in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.

Her passion for life was evident in everything she did. Whether it was spending time with her beloved dog, Max, who was never far from her side, or pouring her heart into her crafts and sewing projects, Debbie approached life with creativity, energy, and love. Her talent and creativity led her to build a successful small business, showcasing her creations at craft shows throughout the area.

Professionally, Debbie was a dedicated and respected employee at ALS Tribology, where she worked for over 30 years. Through hard work and perseverance, she rose through the ranks and became a valued leader. She was deeply committed to her team and always ensured her staff felt supported and appreciated.

Debbie was endlessly dedicated and loving. She never shied away from a challenge and was always eager to learn something new. She truly put her heart into everything and everyone she touched. Debbie's absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but her spirit lives on in the countless lives she touched. She was one of a kind, fierce, funny, generous, and full of love. Anyone who knew her was better for it.

"Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure." - Unknown
