Debbie Lynne Hansford

October 9, 1953 — December 6, 2019

Stephens

Debbie Pitts Hansford, 66, of Stephens, Georgia, passed away peacefully and surrounded by her family on December 6, 2019. She was born in Elberton, Georgia on October 9, 1953 to Bobby Lee and Margaret “Polly” Pitts. Debbie married Ted Hansford on June 8, 1985 and moved to Oglethorpe County, where they raised four children and both lived until their passing.

Debbie was a member of Salem Baptist Church, where she spent years teaching Sunday School and serving the youth of the church. She worked for Pitts Management most of her career and the Oglethorpe County School System for the last ten years of her career. Debbie was a selfless woman, dedicated wife and devoted mother, and she served those around her all her life. She carried herself with grace, dignity, and class and left an unmatched legacy of love and Christian values to her children, and grandchildren. Her ability to make others feel appreciated, welcomed, and significant set her apart and will be a testimony that follows her through all the lives she touched.
