On December 4, 2022 at 8:15 am, at age 63, Deborah Jean Warren Pettus went home to be with her Lord and Savior. There to greet her was her Mama and Daddy, (James Alex Warren and Maggie Inez Wilson Warren), and her sisters Mavis Harville and Barbara Riggs.
Deborah was stubborn. She was declared dead after a car wreck in 2009, but refused to quit. She fought her injuries and Parkinson's for 13 more years, while loving and nurturing her family, making new friends, guiding souls, and making her lazy husband go water her flowers and feed her birds, every single day!
Among the many who will miss Deborah are her husband Maurice and her daughter Maggie Pettus; her sister Nancy Louise (Ricky) Cooper; her brothers James (Edna), Richard, Calvin (Betty), Dan (Jackie), Ray (Sandra), Morris (Lisa), and Arlis (Patricia) Warren. She also had and loved a host of nieces and nephews and cousins and friends.
Visitation for Deborah will be Friday, December 9, 2022, from 5:00pm til 7:00pm at O'Bryant-O'Keefe funeral home in Gautier, MS. Services will be Saturday, December 10, 2022 at 10:00am at the same location, with internment to follow at Griffin Cemetery in Moss Point, Ms.
In place of flowers Deborah asked that donations be given to the Jackson County Animal Shelter in her name.
