I just learned of the death of Debra Snipes. So sorry her music is a great inspiration to me. Especially we come along ways. I was strolling through some music and found her song stepping out the box, I know it was God that had me to find that song, because it really ministered to me.

Our condolences to all family & friends. I came across Debra's music on Facebook last week & has been playing it nonstop. She was a great artist with an angelic & amazing voice. My favorite song of hers is So Many Times The Lord Made A Way For Me. Love, Sympathy & Prayers. Melvenia Jones & Family I know she is missed here but Jesus inherited an angel with an angelic voice.

I just found Debra's music on YouTube. I have been playing it over and over again. It's been such a blessing to me. So anointed. It has me blessing and praising the Lord. I just saw that she has passed. Thank you Lord for the this precious woman. May God bless her family. I will continue to listen to her music as it is so inspiring and uplifting, and it glorifies the Lord.
Also, my brother listened to her music when he was at my house. He said "I gotta get that". He loves her music.
God bless you all.
