Debra S. Randall, 60, Peru, died Feb. 20, 2017.

Deb was born October 26, 1956 in Ionia, Mich. to Robert Edwin and Sherilyn Gayle (Rusmisel) Randall.

Heaven gained a beautiful angel when Deb passed away. She was a loving mother, daughter, sister and friend. While Deb may have given birth to only one child, she was a mother to many. She loved kids dearly, didn’t know a stranger, and adopted any stray animal she saw. She loved to crochet, watch old movies, and spend time with her son Robert.  Deb graduated from Warsaw High School in 1975 and went on to work for R R Donnelly and Sons in Warsaw for many years before a disability forced her retirement.

Deb is survived by her son Robert Tackett of Peru; one grandchild; two brothers: David (wife Sharon) Randall of Silver Lake; Robert Randall of Silver Lake; two sisters: Wensday Crist of Silver Lake; and Gayle McCullough of North Manchester. Also surviving is a step brother, Robert (wife Sue) Bershing of Michigan and two step sisters, Sharon (husband Dick) Harris of National City, Mich.; and Janice Bershing of Powell, Ohio.

Deb was preceded in death by her parents and step father, Robert Bershing.

Deb requested there be no funeral or viewing, a family memorial will be held at a later date.   Any memorials or donations in Debra’s name can be made to the American Lung Association or the American Diabetes Association.
