Debbie passed away peacefully on March 26, 2024, at The Horsham Center, North Wales, Pennsylvania, following a valiant battle with kidney disease.
Born in 1952 in Sellersville, Pennsylvania she was the daughter of the late Edward and Irma Hendricks of Dublin, Pennsylvania.
Debbie graduated from Pennridge High School, Perkasie, Pennsylvania in 1970. While there, she performed on the majorette squad and earned the position of Drum Majorette. She delighted her family when she was chosen as Football Queen in her senior year.
Following completion of an Associate Degree at Centenary College in Hackettstown, New Jersey in 1972, she entered a career as international flight attendant first for Pan Am and then for Delta Airlines. She loved the nearly forty years of service in international flights based out of Dulles, Miami and finally JFK before leaving due to her illness.
Reminded of words spoken by Douglas McArthur so many years ago, Debbie never really retired, she just faded away. Deb loved to remember the good old days, the travel and the adventure. Although she could have lived anywhere in the world she had seen, Debbie chose to live in her beloved Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
Services and interment will be private.
