Debra Dean Coonrod

Debra Dean Leath Coonrod, born on February 16, 1968, in Weatherford, Texas, passed away on September 2, 2024, in Athens, Georgia. She was a treasured member of her family and a beloved friend to many, leaving behind a legacy of love, kindness, and strength.

Debra life was richly woven with the threads of family and friendship. She is survived by her significant other, Bobby Grider, who stood by her side through thick and thin. She was a devoted mother to her daughters, Virginia Ward and Stephanie Coonrod, who cherished her guidance and support throughout their lives. Debra was also a proud grandmother to eight grandchildren, who brought her immense joy and happiness.

In addition to her immediate family, Debra is survived by her niece, Ginnie Siefkas, and her brother, Randy Chamberlain. She was deeply loved and respected by all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Debra was preceded in death by her father, Ronald Ellis Leath, and her mother, Clara Virginia Barton Leath. She was also preceded in death by her brothers, Billy and Raymond Chamberlain, and her sister, Gennia Williams. They will surely greet her with open arms in the embrace of eternal love.

As we remember Debra, let us celebrate the wonderful moments she shared with us—the laughter, the wisdom, and the compassion that defined her character. Her spirit will continue to live on in the hearts of her family and friends, forever influencing those fortunate enough to have known her.
