Born in Toccoa, Georgia on August 20, 1957, she was the daughter of Brenda Anne Cash Watkins and the late John E. Kytle. Debi was a graduate of Habersham Central High School, Class of 1976. She married the love of her life, Jesse Lee Jones, and together they built a beautiful life rooted in love, devotion, and family.

Family was the heart of Debi’s world—especially being a mom to her two sons, Josh and Kalan. She took great pride in supporting them in every endeavor and was always their biggest cheerleader. Debi loved watching Raider Football, UGA Football, and was an avid Atlanta Braves fan. She also cherished trips to the beach, where she found joy and peace.

In addition to her father, she was preceded in death by her step-father, Clyde Watkins.

Survivors include her loving husband of 43 years, Jesse Lee Jones; sons and

daughters-in-love, Joshua Lee Jones (Caitlin Jett) and Jesse Kalan Jones (Carly); brother and sister-in-law, David Kytle (Laura); grandson, Ellis Lee Jones; aunt, Rebecca C. Ayers; along with nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and a host of friends.
