Benning to Carrell

Deborah J. Carr Deborah J. Carr left this earthly existence unexpectedly during an acute illness due to cardiac complications. Debbie was born to James and Dorothy Carr in San Antonio on July 30, 1953, becoming the middle child of three girls. She lived in Filey, England, as well as in Corpus Christi, where she graduated from Mary Carroll High School. She graduated with a BA in Psychology and a BSW from the University of Texas at Austin. Austin became her "home." Debbie was married to Michael Goacher and experienced a brief stint as an Army wife in North Carolina. The couple moved back to Austin after Michael's discharge and subsequently divorced. She then met the love of her life, John Chandler, who always went above and beyond the call of duty to help her when she struggled. Despite divorcing, they remained friends and she left all her worldly possessions to him and most probably her heart as well. Debbie was well known in the legal community, having worked as a paralegal for Arenson & Spears, Terry Belt, Stephen Counts, John Drolla, Kevin O'Hanlon, Polk Shelton, Bobbie Earl Smith, Suzanne Spencer and as a court clerk for Travis County. While her job history is too long to mention, Debbie also worked for many years at the Armadillo Christmas Bazaar. Debbie was a life-long Democrat and liberal who believed in the freedoms of choice, speech and the Great Society. The family will celebrate Debbie's freedom from pain in a private ceremony after her cremation. Those wishing to honor Debbie can make a memorial contribution to any organization that speaks to the causes Debbie loved, political or charitable, Contact Keith Taniguchi for information on the public memorial service.
