Deborah Lynn Ganshaw

August 10, 1954 - December 12, 2019

Deborah Lynn Ganshaw, also known as “Deb” or “Debbie”, was born August 10, 1954 in Ransomville, NY. Although she longed to move back to her home state, she was a resident of Tracy, CA for twenty-six years. After a long battle with cancer, this beautiful fighter was finally able to rest on December 12, 2019 when she went home to be with the Lord. Debbie was an LVN, for about thirty years, working in home healthcare. She enjoyed music, loved to sing and had an uncanny ability to sing any song that came to anyone’s mind. Debbie also loved to crochet and delighted in gifting her creations to friends and family. She was a life long Buffalo Bills fan and would be ecstatic that her team is playoff bound this season. While she had a stubborn streak a mile long, Debbie was a funny, kind-hearted woman, who always put others before herself. Debbie was preceded in death by her father Delbert and her son Dean. She will be missed by her family that loved her beyond measure, husband Grant Ganshaw, sons Nicholas and Steven Ganshaw, daughter Tristen and her husband Otis Treat II, her beloved granddaughters Alexis, Brooklynne, and Madison, mother Marjorie and siblings Katherine, Mark and Joyce. A celebration of life will be held Friday December 20th at 2pm and St. Paul’s Lutheran Church 1635 Chester Dr. Tracy CA. A reception will follow after in the Life Center at the church. It was Debbie’s desire that no one wear black to this celebration, so the family desires that everyone wear something purple in honor of her. In Lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Debbie’s name to a charity of your choice.
