Debra was a member of the IBEW Local 131. She was a Master Electrician and has been employed at Palisades Nuclear Power Plant for the last 7 years. Debra enjoyed taking road trips and would often just say “let's go” and there was no telling where you would end up. Several years ago Debra and her wife Pat took a trip of a lifetime to England, Ireland and Scotland. She loved to visit with lifelong friends, often traveling to Texas or Florida to be with them.

Debra is survived by her mother, Judith (Stanley) Whitney of Battle Creek, MI; three brothers; one sister; and a special friend, Kevin Colbert.

Judy and Stan, I am so sorry for your loss. When I think of Deb, the first thing I think about is her wonderful smile, her friendly outgoing personality and how special she was at everything she did. Again, I am so very, very sorry.
