Debra was born the daughter of Jack and Helen (Pedersen) McNichols
After graduating from High School, she attended the University of Nebraska at Lincoln for studies in Food & Nutrition and later would become involved in the Dale Carnegie Course.
On December 4, 1982, Debra was united in marriage to Ted Charles Brown in Blair, NE. She started her career as a baker in Blair, Lincoln and Omaha, and later become Bakery Manager for HyVee stores in Fremont, NE, Omaha #5. So, it went without say, she would create cakes and cookies for special birthdays and weddings for her family. She would sew all of the Halloween costumes for her kids, thus becoming the best mom a kid could have. All those who were touched by her, walked away with a smile and a sense of direction. After retiring in May from Home Depot after 18 years of service, she remarked that she didn’t regret a thing. There never was a time she passed up an opportunity to have a little fun, if it sounded fun, she was going to be involved. In her mind, she never felt over 26 years of age. Debra loved and spoiled her grandkids with an amazing deck large enough for everyone to have room, along with a pool that was made for unstoppable fun at grandma Debbie’s for the summer.
