She was a lifetime member of the AMVETS Ladies Auxiliary, Post 3720 and also a member of the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary, Post 294, both in Swartz Creek. Deb was an avid reader, an artist and enjoyed working on craft projects with her friends. She also enjoyed keeping in touch with and having lunch every month with former co-workers she worked with at Chevy Manufacturing back in the 60's & 70's. Since 2006, Deb's Ministry to the Troops program led her to shipping over 700 care packages to our deployed military men and women who were far from home. With the help of the AMVETS, VFW, American Legion and many of her friends she would pack, ship, and send cards and letters to these military personnel. She was given awards and citations for her efforts and met many of the military people that she had sent care packages to and corresponded with. Deb is survived by her loving husband, Philip (Sarge); sons, Brandon (Carrie) Smith, Daniel Smith; step-daughters, Fay LaGuire, Gabrielle Huffman; step-son, Philip (Patti) LaGuire; granddaughter, Tess Huffman, Alexandra LaGuire and Margot Smith: sisters, Sherrie (Bill) Wiles, Laurie (Tom) Abdella, Kathie LePard; brother, Fred Lehr; many nieces & nephews.
