Obituary for Debra Allan (Prince)
Debra Prince Allan passed away peacefully at her home in New Harmony, Utah, on July 17, 2019 after a brief battle with cancer.
Debbie was born in Twin Falls, Idaho on June 19, 1950 and raised to be a quintessential California girl, growing up in Walnut Creek and Davis, California. She graduated from Davis High School, attended Church College of Hawaii, Brigham Young University – Provo, and Utah State University, graduating with a BFA in Art. She taught art at North Cache and White Pine Middle Schools in Richmond, Utah, for 20 years.
Debbie loved her family. She enjoyed hiking and camping, especially in Yellowstone NP. One of her great joys in life was being at Tony Grove lake with the wildflowers she loved. She loved painting, gardening, and pulling weeds. She was a life-long Scouter and loved teaching her Primary class. Debbie had a love of Southern Utah and her one great desire in life was to move back to New Harmony. She loved the gospel of Jesus Christ and loved her Savior.
