Funeral service for Debby will be held 2pm Tuesday, February 17, 2026 at Glencoe Hokes Bluff Funeral Home with Thomas Cooper officiating. Burial will follow at Youngs Chapel Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 12:30pm until time of service.

Debby was preceded in death by her parents, George "Junior" Cooper and Launa Cooper, and her beloved son-in-law, Thomas Farmer; and brother-in-law, Todd Jacobs.

Left to cherish her memory are her best friend and loving husband of 50 years, Steve Johnson; her daughters, April Farmer and Amanda Barron; and her treasured grandchildren, Autumn Barron, JJ Barron, and Rilee Farmer.

Debby was a 1975 graduate of Gaston High School. Despite health challenges in recent years, she remained as active as possible and lived her life to the fullest. Her greatest joy was her family, especially supporting her grandchildren at sporting events and band competitions-she was always their biggest fan.

Debby will be remembered for her strength, her devotion to her family, her faith, and the love she poured into everyone around her. Her legacy of love and perseverance will live on through those who were blessed to know her.
