• Notes

  The family moved several times and eventually ended up in Enid. Debbie graduated from Enid High in 1969 and took a culinary arts class at OT Autry Vo-tech in its opening year. She married Roy Swinford and had two children, Tammy and Adam. Debbie later lived in Bittburg, Germany, with her family and was able to travel throughout Europe one summer with her husband and parents. Upon returning to Enid, Debbie worked at Laahoma Public schools as a bus driver and custodian and later at Lowe's. She was employee of the month several times and Employee of the year in 2000. Debbie retired early because of health issues. She loved Bingo and at times the casino. She also enjoyed cross stitch, puzzles and logic games. Most of all she loved and enjoyed her family. Life wasn't always easy for Debbie but she would take the lemons and make lemonade whenever she could.
