Obituary for Lillie Marie Debnam (White)
SOUTH GLENS FALLS
Lillie Marie (White) Debnam, 92, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 24, 2023 at the Elderwood of North Creek.
Born November 16, 1930 in Edenton, NC, she was daughter of the late Richard and Cleopatra (Jernigan) White.
Marie married Clarence Debnam, and together they raised their family until his passing in 2004. She was a hairdresser who worked out of her home.
