In Loving Memory of Deborah Kaye Halliday.

Debbi Halliday passed away peacefully the morning of September 17, 2026, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. She was born June 4, 1954, in New Albany, Indiana the daughter of Donald and Lillian Bunch.

Debbi found joy in life's simple pleasures and precious moments. She was an avid collector of Precious Moments figurines, taking great delight in each treasured piece and the memories they represented. She also loved cruising, traveling, and relaxing with family while creating wonderful memories along the way. She enjoyed crafting, with sewing being one of her favorites. She had a caring heart and found great fulfillment in working with children with special needs.

Above all, Debbi cherished her family. She is survived by her husband of nearly 48 years, Gary; daughter, Kristi (Sara Cooley) Halliday; son, Donny Halliday; and her beloved grandson, Landen Cooley-Halliday. She is also survived by her sisters, Donna Bunch and Juli (Ron) Ppool, and her brother, Steve (Margaret) Bunch along with many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Even throughout her battle with cancer, Debbi continued to find reasons to smile and moments to cherish.  She will be deeply missed, forever cherished, and always loved.

Debbi will be remembered for her love of family, her appreciation for life's little treasures, her adventures on the open seas, and the warmth she brought to those around her. Her love will live on through her family, the memories they shared, and the many special moments she left behind.
