ncluded managing apartment complexes, dealing in commercial property, and logistics for Verizon Wireless. While working in property management, Debra began dating Bryan and soon realized she had found the love of her life. They were married 26 years ago on June 20th, 1992 in Bryan's hometown - Wall, TX. Once married they bought a home and moved to Forney, Texas. In 2003, the couple's dreams were solidified, their "miracle baby" Alexa Kate was born and just a year later the family was complete with the birth of their precious baby, Olivia Nicole. After moving to Forney, Bryan continued his work in healthcare while Debra began working logistics at Verizon. Debra left Verizon wanting to follow Bryan's path and pursue a career in healthcare. She graduated Summa Cum Laude at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center earning a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Debra's intelligence and charismatic personality practically guaranteed her success as a professional and she quickly worked her way up through the ranks. Her most recent employment was with J. B. Hudco Logistics where she was Director of Transportation. Debra's outgoing and caring personality brought happiness and joy to the people she met. She could light up the dreariest & darkest of rooms when she flashed her beautiful smile. She had the most infectious laugh - nobody could remain solemn in Debra's presence. Debra never met a stranger, she could put anyone at ease. Those of us lucky enough to have known Debra are convinced that Heaven has to be an even brighter and happier place now that she is there. Debra was preceded in death by her father, Ronnie Thompson and his parents Bud & Adelle Thompson. Her doting maternal grandparents, Glen& Dorothy Tullis of Plainview, Texas.
