Never measure your life by possessions. Measure by the heart you have touched, the smile you created and the love you shared!
It is with great sadness the family of Debbie Kitchen (formally Greenwood) at Mariposa House Hospice, Severn. She is the daughter of Chuck and Jean Greenwood (both predeceased). She is survived by her husband of 40 years, Glenn McEachern and her two sons Rob (Amie) and Jamie (Shannon). Two granddaughters that she loved deeply, Addison and Olivia. Also deeply loved by all her nieces and nephews. She was also the sister of Diane (predeceased), Donna (Ray) and Deana (Gus).
Deb was one of a kind. She had the biggest heart and would always put everyone’s else’s need before hers. She could find a friend in anyone. She was gracefully clumsy which was one of the many things we loved about her. She was the strongest person. She fought hard and would never give up because that’s who she was. We were also lucky to have her in our lives and she will be missed and loved forever.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Mariposa House Hospice on Deb’s Behalf.
There will be a celebration of life on Sunday October 26, 2025 from 1 - 4 PM with words of remembrance at 2pm ODAS Park. The family requests that you dress casual.
Arrangements entrusted to the Carson Funeral Homes L. Doolittle Chapel, 54 Coldwater St. E., Orillia (705) 326-3595.
