She was born in Cleveland, OH, on Oct, 13, 1951. She was the daughter of the late Richard Andrews.
Debi was a beacon of warmth and joy. Her ever-present smile and compassionate nature immediately put others at ease. Debi found immense happiness in the simple things, particularly crafting and corcheting. With a crochet hook and a skein of yarn, she wove love into countless blankets, scarves and gifts, each a tangible symbol of her affection. Her hands were rarely still, a testament to her generous spirit. Family was the central thread of Debi's life. She delighted in every moment spent with her children and grandchildren, filling her home with laughter and the clack of knitting needles. Her legacy of kindness and creativity will live in the hearts of all who knew her, and in every cozy, handcrafted item she left behind.
In addition to her father, she was preceded in death by her husband, Franklin Wilson, daughter, Melody Wilson, son, Franklin Wilson, Jr.
