Debra Ann (Foor) Blackstone

Debra Ann Blackstone, 61, of Everett, PA; passed away on Tuesday, May 6, 2025 at UPMC Bedford Memorial Hospital.  She was born on July 16, 1963 in Roaring Spring, PA; a daughter of the late Anna (Chalfante) Lawler and Joseph Foor, Jr.  On May 6, 1982 she was united in marriage to James R. Blackstone.  He preceded her in death on November 24, 2023.

She is survived by three children Adam, Aerin and Daniel; four grandchildren Alexander, Katana, Abel and Gauge; two brothers Joseph Foor III and Timothy Lawler; along with numerous nieces and nephews that she adored.  Her family meant everything to her.

She was preceded in death by a sister Dorothy "Dottie" Foor and a niece Robin James.

Debra was a woman of faith.  She dedicated her life to Christ when she was a young child.  She was an amazing mother, maw-maw and aunt.  She was known for her sense of humor and kind heart.  She was a force to be reckoned with.  She will be missed more than words can describe.

Over the years she worked at Post House in Breezewood, the Breezewood Market and she and her husband owned and operated Travelers Rest along route 30 for a number of years.

At Debra’s request services will be held privately with a private burial at the Blackstone Home Place.
