Deborah “Deb” Voss (nee Guithues)

Deborah “Deb” Marie Voss, March 30, 2024, fortified with the Sacraments of Holy Mother Church, passed peacefully with family by her side.

Beloved mother of Ellie Voss; dear daughter of Joyce and the late Donald Guithues; dear sister of Julie (Jeff) Kahlmeyer; dear aunt of Justin (Katie) Kahlmeyer and Kristina Kahlmeyer (who is engaged to Jake Walker), dear cousin and friend to many.

    I just loved working with Deb in the police department for many years. She was an outstanding dispatcher, and loved by everyone. And I mean that sincerely. They don’t come any better. She deeply loved her family and daughter Ellie. She will be terribly missed by all of us. We are heartbroken.

    I’m sorry for all of you and the pain you have gone through. Debbie was a wonderful woman, and mother, and will be missed by all who loved her. My heart goes out especially to Joyce, her devoted mother, and Ellie, her devoted daughter. The entire family is in my prayers!

    Absolutely heartbroken to hear the sad news of Deb’s passing. She always gave me a big hug at schnucks when I would see her. She was so kind and so loved by many customers in the Warson Woods/Kirkwood area, who became her friends. We’ll be keeping her daughter Elle and all of her friends and family close in our prayers.

    I’m so so sad to hear this news. Deb was a good friend and neighbor to me when my mom suddenly passed away years ago so thinking of Ellie breaks my heart. I have such good memories of sitting outside with Deb, her dog Ruby, while my boys and Ellie played on our street. Keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

    I met Deb through my daughter and Els. My daughter and Els were online friends and finally we all met a few years ago. The first time we met we just clicked like we knew each other our whole lives. She had Madison over several times for days at a time and would always make sure she had all her favorite snacks. She was a very special person. A devoted mother who I saw how much her love for Els was. I will miss you! Els, Madison and I both send our love. We are here anytime for you. You are always in our prayers. Rest In Peace sweet Deb!

    Deb was the sweetest. She always gave my boys the biggest hugs in the store. Will miss seeing her bright cheerful smile. Prayers to her daughter and family.
