Deborah grew up in the Verden area, where she attended Verden schools and graduated from Verden High School. She married her high school sweetheart, Johnny Wilson, in Verden, Oklahoma. Together they raised two sons, Merian (Ryan) and Derek. Deborah and Johnny began their family in Verden before moving to Alex, Oklahoma, where they lived for many years. They later settled in Mustang, Oklahoma, where Deborah lived until her passing. Deborah and Johnny shared 46 wonderful years together before Johnny’s passing in 2023.
Deborah worked at Delta Faucet for over 25 years, where she served as a line leader on the faucet line and later became a supervisor over assembly. After leaving Delta, she pursued a nursing career and worked at Bethany Children’s Hospital for 17 years. Her co-workers and the children she cared for held a special place in her heart.
Deborah was a talented basketball player and a lifelong fan of the game. She especially loved watching her sons and grandkids play and never missed a game. Over the last three years, she enjoyed traveling with family and friends, including a cruise, trips to the mountains, Branson, Missouri, and many cherished girls’ trips.
Above all, Deborah loved spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. They were her world.
