She was best known for her quick wit, a personality as big as she was, and her long braid. Debby worked in food service for over 40 years and was loved by the students at the Iowa Law Enforcement Academy. Debby loved making people laugh, Nascar, dancing, and her family.
She is survived by her son Tyler (Trisha) Nielsen, her grandson Trevor Nielsen, her mother Rosemary Bishop, her sister Teri (Roger) Miller, her nieces Mandy (Dennis) George and Brittany Miller, all of Des Moines, her brother Tim Bishop of Denton, Texas, and her loving dog Grasshopper.
She was preceded in death by her husband Marty, their loving dog Cee Cee, and her father Paul Bishop.
In lieu of flowers, Debby requests balloons.

Tyler, I just found out about Deb. So sorry for your loss. I worked with your dad for many years and thought so much of him and Deb. Both are wonderful people and you as well . 🙏

Debby has been one of the most positive influences in my life. No matter what was going on with her, she always found a way to stay positive. I know how much she loved Marty and Tyler and whichever puppy was in her life. She called me on my birthday each year for a good 10 years after we no longer worked together. I miss knowing she is in the world and know she would want us thinking happy thoughts!

Tyler and family. We are heartbroken about Deb's passing. She was the sweetest person I've ever known. She always made me laugh. I'm so grateful that we got to see her the last few weeks. I know she's in heaven with Marty. And she is happy now. We loved her very much and we will miss her deeply.
