Debra Heupler (nee Abbruzzese), of Sewell (Washington Township), NJ, passed away on August 25, 2019 at the age of 59 years. Treasured daughter of Anthony L. Abbruzzese and Esther Abbruzzese (nee Pili). Beloved mother of Matthew Thomas Heupler (Rose) of Mantua, NJ, and Ryan Joseph Heupler of Philadelphia, PA. Proud grandmother of Lorelai Evelyn Heupler and Silas Salvatore Heupler. Loving sister of Stephen Abbruzzese (Josie) and Sharon Lambert (Chris). Dear aunt of Chris Lambert, Nicole Lambert, Jennifer Edwards (Michael), Jessica Cruz (Fredy), and the late Christopher Abbruzzese. Debbie loved nothing more than spending time with her family. Her aunts and uncles were devoted to Debbie and that was a great comfort to her. Her passion to share Jesus with others was contagious. She was so very grateful for all that her Lord and Savior did for her. Debbie also kept a garden and would find great peace tending to it and planting beautiful flowers. She was a deeply creative person. When she was younger, she played violin and went on to channel her creativity into art. Debbie even painted a beautiful mural on the walls of her boy’s bedroom. She loved singing and found a way to do so, as often as she could. Debbie enjoyed collecting porcelain dolls and angels. She also enjoyed watching the Hallmark Channel or catching Highway to Heaven whenever she could. Debbie had a big heart and shared it with anyone she could. Prior to the nursing home, she was deeply devoted to her Church. Debbie volunteered her time at Pitman Manor, reading to the elderly from the Bible and singing hymns. Some of them came to accept the Lord as she shared the love of Jesus with them. Debbie was an animal lover and had a special place in her heart for all her pets, (Caesar, Whiskey, BJ, Sifl and Nippy). Debbie had a wonderful sense of humor and brought a smile to anyone who she came in contact with. She will be missed beyond measure by all those who loved her. Viewing will be Thursday, August 29, 2019 from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Earle Funeral Home, 122 W. Church St., Blackwood, NJ 08012, where a prayer service will follow at 8:00 PM.
