This memorial resolution honors the life and service of Debra D. Lewis, a multi-talented professional who made significant contributions to public service, healthcare, and community support. Lewis was a U.S. Navy veteran who served as a Training Commander and held various community leadership roles, including board chairperson of the North Chicago Fire and Police Commission and secretary of the Lake County NAACP. She was a licensed practical nurse with advanced health education credentials, including certification in CPR, Mental Health First Aid, and Narcan education. Lewis worked extensively in community support, serving as the program manager for the Northern Illinois Recovery Community Organization (NIRCO) and a founding member of the Dove Mentorship program. With a master's degree in human resource development and over 20 years of dedicated service, she was recognized for her integrity and commitment to both her military service and local community. The Illinois Senate resolution mourns her passing, extends condolences to her family, including her son Aaron, daughter-in-law Elizabeth, and grandchildren, and resolves to present a copy of the memorial to her family as an expression of sympathy.
