Debra Kay Brooks-Hendricks passed away on April 9, 2026, after a long battle with cancer.

Her final moments were spent peacefully surrounded by her family and son in his home in Yukon.

She was born to Wilbur (Curly) and Bonnie Brooks on April 23, 1952, in Wichita, Kan.

Her family later moved to Oklahoma and she graduated high school in Pond Creek.

Debbie had many career endeavors, a few being a hospital dietician, American Airlines, Advance Foods, Tyson Foods and her latest being Vault Ice in Norman and Entero Services out of Enid.

With every career choice, she made many new family members of her co-workers.

Known for her beautiful smile, bubbly personality and witty sense of humor, Debbie will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

Every person she crossed paths with was treated as family and like one of her own. She always made everyone feel special.

Debbie had a giving heart and loved to help others.

Her family asks that she be remembered for the joy she brought to others in her life, not the sadness of her passing.
