Debbie could easily see God and the miracles of His work in the natural world around us. Miracles that many of us miss.
Debbie was a member of the First Baptist Church of Kerrville. She was very active in the church, including participating in a mission trip to Africa, up until her illness prevented such activities. Debbie was a volunteer and board member for Hill Country Ministries.
Debbie was preceded in death by her Dad, Jack Bundy; and Mom, Donna Bundy.
She is survived by her husband, Craig; brothers, Jack and Jim; step-mother, Bettie; and step-sister, Toni. Debbie is the proud Godmother to Everett Foster.
A celebration of Debbie's life will be held at a later date.

I've struggled to write many times - it's so hard to speak about Debbie in the past tense. She was my step-sister and I will always remember her sense of humor of love of laughter. She was the light of her dad's eyes - he was very proud of her. Debbie and Craig created a beautiful life together and we were always delighted for any opportunity to visit. She was a natural born "Snow White" - instant friend to any furry creature and had many literally eating out of her hands! You know you are good people when even the critters love and adore you!
I'll never forget Deb's voice - that distinctive way she spoke, mixing a southern accent with her Detroit roots. She was the epitome of effortless grace and hospitality. I cherish the texts and emails with funny jokes, observances and quips. I only wish I could have known her better.
I'm comforted in knowing her faith was strong and I'm sure she is fulfilled in heaven, reunited with Donna and Jack. I send all my love to Craig, who has been such a warrior for her these last years.

It was treat getting to work with Deb in Russellville and then have Craig and Deb head up to Hudson Wisconsin for a number of years.
Her positive attitude, infectious laugh, love of animals, and sense of adventure were inspiring to us all.
We will miss her greatly but know that her strong faith has taken her to her next adventure.

Craig, we were shocked and heartbroken to hear of Debbie leaving this world so soon! We grieve with you. Our prayers are that somehow you will encounter the comfort and peace only God can offer during this difficult season. May God's grace wrap you and sustain you, Brother.

As Jon and I read the messages about Deb there is a consistent theme to people’s memories. Her contagious laugh, her warmth, her unshakeable joy. How she would respond with the word “weellll” adding syllables and how everyone else felt loved and encouraged just by being around her. She never was concerned for herself.
Not many people are as contagious as Deb was. I think that was a reflection of both how God wired her and the joy of the Lord bubbling out.
We will never be able to read “The joy of the Lord is my strength…” without thinking of Aunt Deb.
By her character and actions she changed the way I looked at many things in life. Things like hardships, God’s creation, being a godly wife and generosity towards others, to name a few.
We’re so thankful to have spent many holidays, trips and even Covid quarantine together, memories we’ll always cherish. What an honour to know an angel like Deb while we’re on this earth.
We’ll miss you forever Aunt Deb, I can’t imagine the joy you are experiencing in the presence of King Jesus.
Until we see you again. We love you!

So hard to put into words how We loved our Precious Deb. This song has been on my heart (Serenaded by Angels). She went to sleep one day, never here to awake again. But everything was alright, between Her and Him. She awoke in heavens courtyard, free from pain within . The Angels gathered around Her, and took her by the hand. Serenaded by Angels, up to
the throne, Serenaded by Angels, She’s finally home. Surrounded by Praises, to the King. Welcome to Paradise, the Angels did sing.

There is no way to express the loss of such a wonderful and caring soul. Debbie saw the good and beauty in everything around her, always so positive even going through the difficult times she had in the last few years. She is and will always be such an inspiration to me on truly how one of Gods children should be here on Earth and now an angel of God.
Our talks, her smile and infectious laugh were such a blessing and I have been so blessed to have had such a wonderful sister in my life that will never be forgotten. You will be so missed!
Rest in Heaven with mother and father.
I love you!

Craig, my heart continues to hurt - grieving the absence of Deb here with us, but my mind and spirit rejoice that she is pain free and not only that, but celebrating in the glory and presence of Jesus. We will miss her deeply but carry the many years of precious memories in our hearts. She was and is one of my dearest sisters in Christ. I will cherish forever our weekly Tuesday afternoons working side by side and her serving on the Board of Directors for Hill Country Ministries. Her encouragement, "we can do it!", got me through many times. God used her mightily to help HCM fulfill our mission to "spread the Word and love of Jesus." The board, the ministry will miss her, but her work and the impact she made will live on through the many Bible studies and blogs she proofed and scheduled. As was said of Jesus, "she is not here, she is risen." Luke 24:6 And as David said after his son's death, "I will go to him (her) one day, but he (she) cannot return to me." 2 Samuel 12:23) so we will go to Debbie one day. I will also cherish forever our times of laughter and giggles over the silliest of things and our 3 Musketeer lunches with Janice. As I've said before about Deb...the dearest of friends. You are in our prayers. Love, Debbie and Keith

I am so sorry, Craig, for your loss. As the obituary says, Debbie did indeed brighten up wherever she was and bring joy to all around her. May the Lord comfort and be with you in a special way.

We are blessed to have known Debbie, she always made us feel like family, and to us, she and Craig are family.
I will miss sending her funny animal videos, but will always smile when I see one from now on, because I know it will be something she would have laughed at along with me.
Debbie was the kind of person that made our world a better place. She will always be missed.

Craig and family, I am sorry for your loss. Deb was an amazing person. She was always so kind and had the most beautiful smile. While we here on earth will miss her the Lord has another faithful soul with him in the heavenly realm. I am so glad I got to know her while in our life group at First Baptist.

I will miss Debbie. Her infectious laugh, her upbeat attitude. If you were around Deb, you were smiling. Her go to response to whatever struck her as unusual, unexplained, ironic or ridiculous, was to say "well!" She could, to the envy of any southern lady, stretch that "well" from one syllable to two! She was a hard worker and took the very best care of her human family, her animal family, and her home. She loved us all and we loved her right back. I was unable to say goodbye in person, only in my head. My heart still has a hard time saying it. Debbie was not just my stepdaughter, she was a dear friend.

Deb,
You will be so missed, your love your gentle smile. You loved us so much and never asked for anything in return. I will miss your welcoming arms and smile. You were and will always be the best Godmother to Everett, he loved you so much. I have always admired the love you and Craig shared and the open arms you gave to Keela and I when we needed your guidance. Love you always, and will miss you dearly.
With love,

Kelly and I were truly blessed to know Debbie (& her husband Craig) in our family Bible Study group at FBC Kerrville. She was and is an incredible woman who loved Jesus Christ and set a very strong example of service, joy, love, perseverance, and deep hope. She will be missed for the rest of our lives here, but we look with glorious anticipation to the reunion that will follow with Christ in heaven because of His promises. Absent in the body, present with the Lord! Debbie is in heaven now and we’re are blessed to know her here. What an incredible woman, here on Earth and now in the presence of the Eternal King. Blessings and peace to the entire family during this very hard time.

Debbie is the love of my life and I have been blessed beyond belief to have her as my bride. She is the source of my joy, brilliantly reflecting the light of our lord. Many people have asked me if she was always that encouraging, joyous, and positive at home, even in the face of a serious illness….. absolutely! A wonderful soul that I will miss more than words can describe. Craig
