Debra Jean Williams, 71, of Hobart, Oklahoma, passed away unexpectedly at her home on March 17, 2025. She was born on March 30, 1953, in Hobart, Oklahoma, to Tink & Arvella Moran who instilled in her the values of kindness, resilience, and family.

Debbie graduated from Hobart High School in 1971. Shortly after graduation, she married Larry Sharp, and together they were blessed with two precious daughters, Sherri and Tina. She dedicated her life to her family, always ensuring they were surrounded by love and warmth.

In 1991, Debbie married Jeff Williams. Throughout her life, Debbie worked in various jobs, but her true passion was banking. She built a rewarding career in the banking industry, working in several banks in Hobart for over 40 years. For the last 21 years, she was a valued employee of Jim Stoup at InterBank in Hobart. She loved visiting with her customers and made lifelong friendships through her work. Debbie was a devoted member of the Hobart Church of Christ.

Debbie's greatest joy in life was her family, especially her grandchildren. Before her health began to decline, she never missed an opportunity to watch them play ball. She was their biggest fan and loved them with all her heart.
