Debrah Kaye Collins, age 68, passed away peacefully at her home surrounded by family in Hopkins,MI on May 13th, 2024. She was welcomed into the arms of her heavenly father, and her beloved husband Dale. Debrah fought hard for over 2 years battling cancer.
She was born to Stuart M Palmer, and Joyce A Palmer on August 9th, 1955 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Debrah was preceded in death by her father Stuart M Palmer, her mother Joyce A Palmer and her beloved husband Dale E Collins Jr. She is survived by her children Amy (Damian) Perez, Jeff (Liz) Collins, and her Stepchildren Gerry (Denise) Collins, and Alice (Dan) Koster, her Grandchildren, sisters Sandy Berry, Janice (Tim) Miller, mother in law Charlotte J Fisher, along with many niece's, nephews, and cousins.
Debrah was a florist for 20 plus years both in Michigan and in Tennessee. When she wasn't working she loved spending time with her friends, whether it was playing bingo, bowling, or traveling to concerts. After retirement she enjoyed spending time with her family, but what she enjoyed most was spending time with her grandkids.
Debrah loved doing many things with her grandkids like going to the zoos, especially Boulder Ridge. She enjoyed going to Cedar Point, Kings Island mainly to enjoy time with family more than the rides. Anyone who knew her knew how much she loved her grandkids, she would attend all their sporting events, as well as school activities including watching RC races. When she wanted to just hang out with the grandkids she would spoil them with movies, ice cream and sleepovers.
In her spare time she liked to shop at Kohl's, go to the casino, put puzzles together, and she even took an interest in learning to bake. In Debrah's lifetime she has touched many many lives, and will be deeply missed by all who loved her.
There will be a Celebration of Life to be held on August 18th, 2024. Please check back for further information as it comes available.
