It is with great sadness that the family of Mrs. Debra Lynn Couturier announces her passing, after a brave battle with cancer, on Thursday, September 24, 2020 at the age of 64 years. Debra passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by her loving family and friends. Debra was born on January 7, 1956 at Barrie, Ontario. Debra’s children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren were the pride and joy of her life. The legacy of Debra’s kind spirit, passion for family, love of reading and playing games will live on through them. She was an inspiration to all who knew her. She always had a smile on her face, a joke on her lips and was always there to brighten the lives of others. All who knew Debra loved her and she will be missed but not forgotten. Debra will be lovingly remembered by her three children, Natalie (Doug) Halwas, Kyle (Terry-Jo) Gillett and Tanya (Tyler) Bates; her eleven grandchildren, Adonna (Jason), Shawn, Nathan, Greg (Brie), Dylan, Ryan, Tyson, Emily, Jesse, Hayden and Sianna and her seven great grandchildren, Savannah, Hailey, Lyric, Maverick, Mallon, Raya and Wyatt.
