    Notes 
    • Deborah "Debbie" Miller, 60, Donnybrook, ND, died unexpectedly at her home on Sunday, April 22, 2012 of natural causes.

      Deborah Ann Hennenfent was born on June 22, 1951, in Minot, ND, a daughter of Cyril and Dorothy (Selid) Hennenfent. She was raised and educated in Riverdale, ND graduating from Riverdale High School in 1969. Debbie furthered her education by attending college at the North Dakota State College of Science in Wahpeton, ND for Nursing and Minot State University for secretarial studies.

      On June 16, 1984, Debbie was united in marriage to Mike Miller in Donnybrook, ND.

      She was secretary at the Fortuna radar base until it closed then transferred to Minot Air Force Base Fire Department, where she worked until their first son Corey was born in 1986, when she decided to be a homemaker. Their second son Shawn was born in 1987. Her boys always came first and were her pride and joy! After living in Minot, they moved to rural Donnybrook to a farm. Debbie loved living in the country and raising her boys on the family farm.

      After her boys started school, Debbie worked at home as a medical transcriptionist. She also spent several summers working for the Department of Transportation which she thoroughly enjoyed. At the time of her death, she was a Scentsy consultant. Debbie loved to visit, so working for Scentsy was a perfect match for her. It gave her the opportunity to socialize and meet new friends and being a Scentsy consultant was not a job, just fun.

      Debbie had a bubbly personality with a unique giggle to match. Her smile always brightened the room. She had a love for life, her family and her friends. She enjoyed conversations, camping, crosswords puzzles, shooting pool, boxing and a good mystery. She was a loyal friend and loved spending time visiting on the phone. She was also a member of the Washburn American Legion Auxiliary.

      Debbie was blessed with her granddaughter Haley, born on June 20, 2008. This brought a new adventure to her life she loved dearly.

      She is survived by her mother, Dorothy Elvrum; her husband Mike Miller; her sons, Corey ( Keshia Egeberg) Miller and Shawn Miller; and her granddaughter Haley.

      Debbie was preceded in death by her father, Cyril Hennenfent; her brother Wade Hennefent; and her step dad; Russ Elvrum.
