Debbie, age 60, of Port Orange, FL, passed away peacefully, June 11th, 2019 at Halifax Health Hospice, Port Orange. Debbie enjoyed cooking nice meals for her family, not just on holidays but every evening. She enjoyed country music and attending country music festivals and concerts. She worked hard her whole life to ensure all of her children and grandchildren never wanted or went without, especially making priceless memories. She was a loving daughter, sister, mother, aunt, grandmother and cherished friend, and had a smile that would light up the room. Her children and grandchildren were her life and she showed her love, strength, and courage for them every single day. She loved her family as God loves all of his children. She is survived by her mother, Patricia May McGinnis, and Step-Mother, Pamela Sue Constance Cole, her three daughters: Heather Marie Strickland 40, Melissa Ann Strickland 38, Amanda "Kelly" Strickland 35, and her two sons, Tyler Anthony Strickland 25, and Austin Brian Baker 24; her son and daughter in-law, James A.
