Obituary for Deborah J. "Debbie" Harris (Burnet)
Deborah Jane "Debbie" Harris, age 56, of Carrollton, GA went to her heavenly home on Sunday, December 5th, 2021 following a valiant fight against breast cancer.
Her beloved family was by her side.
She was born on October 9, 1965 in Lombard, IL. to Thomas William and Mary Catherine (Ernst) Burnet.
After receiving her Associate's Degree in Radiologic Science, she worked for Tanner Breast Health in Carrollton, GA for many years as a Mammography Technician.
She was a member of Tabernacle Baptist Church in Carrollton, and had strong faith that was a constant encouragement for those around her.
She had a great sense of humor, and an ability to make others feel at ease.
This was true every day except April Fool’s Day, which was her favorite holiday, and we all knew not to answer the phone.
She was a great cook, learning from an early age from her mother’s example, and enjoyed cooking for her family and friends.
She mostly loved spending time with her family, and especially enjoyed reading with her grandchildren.
Deborah is survived by her daughters, Meagan (Jeremy) Anderson of Wooster, OH and Abby Harris of Covington, GA, her grandchildren, Becca, Benjamin, Bradley and Bodie, her sister, Cathy (Charles) Mercier of Carrollton, GA, her niece, Jennifer Mercier of Atlanta, GA, sister-in-law, Jeanne Burnet of Franklin, TN, and many close friends who were also like family.
In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by her brother, Thomas William Burnet, Jr.
Memorial services will take place on Saturday December 11th, 2:00 p.m. in the chapel at Tabernacle Baptist Church, in Carrollton with Rev. Dr. Stephen V. Allen officiating.
Out of respect for individuals in attendance, the wearing of masks is encouraged.
