Deborah Susan Lapray

Debbie Lapray was born on December 31, 1956 in Twin Falls Idaho, the daughter of Robert and Margaret Hollon. Debbie passed away on Saturday, June 1, 2024 in her home in Cortez, Colorado at the age of 67.

Debbie was a beautiful, fiery, adventurous, strong, and free spirited woman who went wherever the wind took her. She had the most infectious laugh and was the life of any party. She always encouraged having fun no matter what the circumstances were. She loved rocking out to her records while whipping up something delicious in the kitchen. Debbie absolutely loved cooking/baking; she was a phenomenal cook and would feed anyone who walked in the door. She also enjoyed photography, gardening, fishing and of course her regular crossword scratch tickets. 

Debbie will be dearly missed.
