Debra Lynn (Marcum) Hammond

Debra (Debbie) Hammond, age 68 of Inez, KY went home to be with the Lord on December 4, 2024, in Columbus, Ohio where she lived with her daughter. Debbie has been under the care of Hospice, Ohio Health with Compasses at home since September of this year. She was born on October 25, 1956, to the late Henry (HB) and Alta Mae (Endicott) Marcum in Louisa, KY. Debbie was proceeded in death by her loving husband Ernie (Weasle) Hammond, who went to be with the Lord in June 2017, both of her parents, Henry (HB) and Alta Mae Marcum and many others.
Debbie leaves behind three children, Israel (Katrina Ward) Hammond of Sitka, KY, Chastity (Steven) Page of Inez, KY, and BobbieSue (Bryan) Stevens of Columbus, Ohio, one sister, Michelle (Tommy) Marcum, and Angie Wells was not her biological sister, but to Debbie, she was.
She also leaves behind four grandchildren whom she loved more than anything and was so very proud of them all.
Grandsons: Cody Lee (Paige) Hammond, Corey Ray (Kynzie) Hammond, and Granddaughters: Santanna Raelyn Jude and Destiny Faith Stevens, six Great Grand Children: Isabella, Wrenly, Maddie, Brixxon, Ruthie, and Tucker. Debbie didn't get to spend time with them all due to her health, but she always saved pictures and bragged to everyone who cared for her at one point or another just how beautiful and precious they were.
Debbie's health took a turn for the worse in 2022, where we learned of the heart disease she was diagnosed with and the severity of COPD.
Debbie loved and served the Lord. She enjoyed her role in babysitting Ruthie and Tucker every day with BobbieSue and Israel. She loved watching videos of Brixxon singing and Isabella cheering. Anything that involved all of her grandbabies (except throwing a fit) she was always eager to watch.
Debbie loved her family, and she will be missed terribly. Please pray for her children and grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at 2 PM at New Friendship United Baptist Church with Michael Marcum officiating. Burial will follow in the Buffalo Horn Cemetery. Friends may visit the church on Friday, December 6, 2024, from 5 PM to 9 PM and all-day Saturday, December 7, 2024. Arrangements are under the direction of Crum Funeral Home of Inez, KY.
