A talented florist by trade, Debra later retired from a successful career as a medical coder. She brought the same dedication and care to her professional life that she gave so freely to her family and friends. Known for her kind and generous spirit, Debra had a heart for helping others. She was a caregiver not only to her own family but also to countless others, often stepping in to care for children so that single mothers could work and improve their lives. She was truly a mother to many.
Debra enjoyed traveling and often visited her hometown of Brackettville, where she found peace and connection. Time with family was especially important to her, and she always made the most of those moments.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Alex Longoria and Delia Smith, as well as her uncles Alfred Gomez and Narciso Gomez, and her beloved aunt Elvidia "Aunt Bea" Hinds.
