Debi Miller Sheffield, 59, of Chesterfield, Virginia, left this world on Monday, December 12, 2022. She has moved on to Greener Pastures, at peace with Christ; her parents, Ron and Hazel Miller; and the love of her life, Marcus Frei. Debi is survived by her sister, Sherri Snelson (Donnie); niece, Leslie Elston (Zoe); nephew, Jake Snelson(Monica); and five great-nieces and nephews, Callie, Levi, Kahlo, Jackson, and Ellie. She was nicknamed "Awesome Aunt Debi" by some of them.
Debi was a graduate from Byrd High School and received a Business Degree from Braxton School of Business. She became an Office Manager for several years before her 18 year career as waitress at Applebee's in Chester. She had many regulars there and was known as the "Cookie and Cake Lady."
Debi never had children of her own, and yet she was like a mother to many. Her door was always open to any friend or relative who needed her, and her pantry and fridge were always well supplied for anyone hungry. Debi loved helping and giving to others. She also greatly loved her animals. Molly, her Shih-tzu, was her baby, and any cat that came to her door was given a home.
Debi loved to travel, cruise, and vacation at the beach, making friends and memories wherever she went.
A celebration of life is being planned, date not determined as of yet. Debi will be missed; she has left us with fond memories, and many stories to tell.
"Go rest high on that mountain, your work on Earth is done."
