Deborah Rose Begeman, 65, died Thursday September 5, 2019. Deborah was a native of the Greater New Orleans area. She was proud of her heritage, being born in New Orleans and eventually settling in Metairie. Anyone who knew Deborah had heard at least one, probably many, of her stories and narratives. She was hilarious. But chances are she will be remembered the most for her meals and designer cakes. She lived by the moto, “Nothing says lovin like something from the oven.” She was a supporter of the Louisiana SPCA and through the years had enjoyed cooking for the volunteers at Shelter events. Deborah was preceded in death by her father, Clifton Begeman, and her mother, Marjorie Gentry Begeman. She is survived by her companion and friend of 30 years, Shelly Patton, her sisters, Barbara Sessum Munster, Bunny Giraud, Janet Baker, and Sandra Kelly, and a host of nieces, nephews, friends and extended family who loved and now miss her. Deborah left behind three dogs; her heart Charlie, her trouble maker Alick, and Coco, a “niece” she brought into her home and couldn’t let go. As per Deb’s wishes there will be no service. For those who wish donations are requested for the Louisiana SPCA in Deborah’s name.
