Debo as she was affectionately known, loved being at the beach. She loved the ocean and boating with her family. Family was important to her, and it was obvious with the amount of time she spent with them, especially her grandson, Jacob. Debbie spent over forty years working in the banking industry. She made many friends while working at First Citizens Bank, both the customers and her coworkers many of whom became like family.

Debbie was predeceased by her father, Bobby F. McKenzie, a brother, Ricky S. McKenzie, and a nephew, Hunter McKenzie.

She is survived by her mother, Bobbie C. McKenzie of Nichols; her husband, Barry Anderson of Nichols; a daughter, Hope Arnette Anderson; a grandson, Jacob Rivers Anderson; a niece, Kaitlin McKenzie, as well as many close friends and family that loved her dearly.

The family will receive friends at the cemetery following the service. We respectfully request that you wear a mask and practice social distancing while in the presence of others in the cemetery.
