Debbie had such a caring spirit and loving soul. She graduated from Arlington High
School in 1973, She was employed at Southwest Airlines for many years and retired from AT&T after
more than 20 Years of service. Debbie was a little social butterfly, from her friends from High School, she
always wanted to attend the social group gatherings, to the individual friends she shared a variety of
activities with from going to a play or concerts, the casino, or just dinner and drinks, she made each one
of us feel special in every way. No matter where she worked or played; she created a long list of lasting
friendships. Debbie so loved and cared for her family and friends, which is evident by the outpouring of
support from everyone. For as much as she gave of herself to us all, her family and friends gave
her pride, joy, laughter, tears, and happiness. Debbie gladly gave a little piece of her heart
to everyone she knew, and we truly were blessed to have such a special angel beside us.
Debbie is survived by her Mother Doris Wynn (Hurst, TX), brother Larry Estep ( Jeanne) (Norfolk, VA ),
her three children Johnny Ford (Ft. Worth, TX), Jennie Ford (Ft Worth, TX), Elliot Estep (Arlington, TX ).
She was the proudest Grandmother to her six grandchildren, Mariah, Maddie, Brooklyn, Mya, Easton,
and TJ, where her love, sweetness, and caring nature would shine the brightest. She adored the title of
Grandma; they brought so much joy to her through the years; her spirit will watch over all of us forever.
She loved her entire family unconditionally; we are all heartbroken she will not be with us,
although her memory will never fade. She left us with no answers but lessons for life.
Debbie was preceded in death by her Father Gene R. Estep and Brother Oren R. Estep.
Debbie did not desire anything significant for a memorial, she had stated that we have a party and
to keep it “low key.” There will be a life celebration-party in her honor this Friday evening
