She was born on February 20, 1958 in Leonardtown, MD to the late James Edward Young Sr. and Gertrude Elizabeth (Armstrong) Young of Leonardtown, MD.
Deborah was a graduate of Chopticon High School in Morganza, MD., class of 1977.

Deborah was known to her family and friends as “Debbie” and to her coworkers as the “social butterfly”. Debbie loved to spend time with her family playing cards, dancing, sharing stories and even cheering on her favorite football team on Sundays, the Dallas Cowboys. She took joy in celebrating birthdays and holidays, her favorite part was buying and wrapping gifts for her younger nieces and nephews; every child within the family had a gift for Christmas. Debbie also loved watching her Lifetime movies and reviewing them over the phone with her sisters and nieces. She would get excited whenever the news covered stories on panda bears, she always had a love for them. Debbie enjoyed walking, often by herself but she would love when William would join her.
Debbie and William began dating shortly after high school. They were life-long partners. From their relationship came their son, Lamont and granddaughter, Tamera. They loved taking road trips to visit them in Ohio or having them come to Maryland throughout the year. Debbie cherished every moment spent with her loved ones.
