Debra Brewer Obituary
July 8, 2025
Debra Lee Brewer, retired 20-year USAF veteran, known to those closest to her as Debi or "Lady", passed away Tuesday, July 8th, 2025. She died peacefully at home with her children and best friend.
Debi was an inspiring woman with an insatiable appetite for knowledge and expanding her world view. She loved to travel and discover new experiences and spent much of her energy seeking to understand the history of places. She shared these traits with her children, Billy and Genny, who spent their childhood being global travellers and students of the world.
Debi is survived by her children William Morris and Geneva Louise. Her love and devotion to her community will be remembered by many, especially by the veterans with whom she worked ("her people" as she called them).

Billy and Genny, I am so sorry about your mom. I just found out about her passing into heaven. When we first met I was a student at Emmanuel. Debi was new there and we had never met. Your mom ran up to me, embraced me and told me I was her new best friend. I was a little surprised but she was right we did become best friends. She was one of the kindest people I ever met and she taught me so much abut what it meant to be a mature Christian. We lost track of each other a few years after I graduated. I often thought about her and prayed for her. I look forward to seeing her again in heaven. She was a true sister in Christ.

Debi was the best. I always looked forward to seeing her. She was a joy and a brilliant intellectual. I will miss my beautiful friend so very much. It was a an honor to be her stylist.

I did not know her but I want to thank her family for the 20 years she gave to our country. I know you are proud of her. I too am a child of a veteran. May God bless you and God bless America
