Debra Armbruster Obituary
Debra lived a full, joyful life centered on family, music, travel, and community. She worked at MST for 22 years and also owned the 7 Mile House Bar in Marysville, where her warmth and laughter made everyone feel welcome.
She is survived by her husband, Charles Armbruster; children Karin and Stephen (Ceara) Hayth; Rebecca and Brittany Armbruster. Known as "Nana and G-ma," to her grandchildren Kristina, Brian, Mason S., Nate, Emma, Brooke, Chandler, Ivy and Mason B. She was preceded in death by her son, Brian Kirkman.
Debra had a deep love for the Beatles, concerts, and cheering for the 49ers and Giants. She found joy in travel, especially to Italy, and cherished time with family.
Debra will be remembered for her kindness, laughter, and ability to make everyone feel included. Her spirit lives on in all who knew her.

Deb was my cousin but not just my cousin she was my sister from another mister we were soo close and talked every week. She was a die hard 49ers fan and me a Chiefs fan we made bets on our teams when they played and in this photo she lost the bet lol. She was soo full of life and adventures with Charlie and she got to attend our family reunion this last year where we had a blast!! I will miss her soo much and I wish we lived closer but she always loved California where she called home. Charlie you are family and always will be and I hope you find peace and comfort knowing she's still here in spirit with you!! RIP my beautiful cousin/sister we miss you!!!

Oh my goodness - where do I start! Soon after meeting Deb at MST I knew we would be friends. One of the most kindhearted people I have ever met. Deb was the kind of person who would truly give up her jacket when it was freezing outside. When I decided to move to Texas who was there to help me get that car on the trailer Deb and Charlie, that´s who! I have to say where there was Deb, there was Charlie. Two peas in a pod. Charlie I know as you travel through this time without your sidekick next to you, please remember 2 things - Deb will always be there in spirit and I for one am just a phone call away for support. Double D you will be missed beyond words.
