Deborah Kaye Queener, 63, of Knoxville, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on June 15, 2025. Born on December 22, 1961, in Clinton, Tennessee, Deborah was known for her unwavering loyalty, sharp wit, and boundless love for her family.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Daniel Queener; her parents, Rev. Ondes and Dorothy Crowley; her sisters, Otella Russell, Theresa Flatford, and Rosella Kelley; and her brothers, W.F., Jack, and Terry Crowley.

Deborah is survived by her daughter, Courtney Baisy (husband Randy); her son, Casey Queener; her pride and joy—her grandson, Emmett Baisy, who brought endless light to her life, as well as a host of extended family.

A fiercely independent woman, Deborah had a gift for solving problems in the most creative ways—there was nothing she couldn't "MacGyver" into working. She was smart, quick-witted, and stubborn in the best way, never one to back down when it came to standing up for those she loved. Her passions included reading and indulging her curiosity in true crime.

Deborah leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and resilience. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Deborah's life at Holley-Gamble Funeral Home on Friday, June 20th. Visitation will be held from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM, with a service immediately following at 3:00 PM, officiated by Rev. David Crowe and Rev. Daniel Metcalf.
