She was born May 6, 1957 in Granite City, IL, the daughter of Theodore and Joyce E. Flackus Trebing.
She married Thomas L. Withee on November 5, 1977 in Jacksonville and he survives.
She is also survived by her mother, Joyce McKean of Jacksonville; two sons, D.J.

An avid St. Louis Cardinal fan, Debi enjoyed many travel experiences, especially the year she spent with her husband residing in Switzerland for his work assignment. A devoted mother and grandmother, she treasured time spent with her family and her many animal friends. She was a woman of principle, always reminding her family to treat each person they meet with fairness and respect.
