Debbie was born September 12, 1952 in Tacoma, Washington to Eunice Olson and Harold Maher, the third of four children. She attended Campbell Hill Elementary, Dimmitt Jr. High, and Renton High School. She was a Girl Scout, studied dance, was a gymnast, sang in school choirs, and was a member of her church's youth program. Always energetic and adventurous, she liked to master new skills and had an extraordinary sense of comedy and humor.
During Debbie's junior year in high school, her mother passed away after years of battling breast cancer. Six months later, her father passed away.
At the beginning of her senior year, Debbie married and moved to Bellingham, Washington where she and her husband continued their schooling. Debbie loved and had a great talent for sewing and creating, and wanted to be an interior designer.
Sometime in the 1980s Debbie and her husband divorced. She moved back to the Seattle area and worked as a lay-up machinist at Boeing. She later was diagnosed with breast cancer. Like her mother, Debbie fought the cancer for several years before it claimed her in September 2000, one week after her 48th birthday.
