Standing at 5'6" and weighing around 150 pounds, Debra has blonde hair and brown eyes. It was reported that she is suffering from Dementia/Alzheimer's, heightening concerns for her immediate safety.

Debra was last seen departing from her home on Rutgers Place at about 3 p.m. yesterday. She was dressed in a tan hat, a blue short-sleeve shirt paired with a blue skirt, and blue tennis shoes.
