Deb was born October 29, 1951, to Alvin and Genevieve (Schneeberger) Boeck. She attended Willow Creek Grade School and Amboy High School where she graduated in 1969. Afterward, she worked several office jobs around Minnesota. Deb met Paul Young in Mankato and they married on September 8, 1978. They owned and operated the NAPA stores in Mankato and St. Peter. Deb also liked traveling to several cities over the years on fun trips with her sisters.

In retirement, she worked at garden centers in both Mankato and Venice, Florida. She was also a dog sitter and walker in her later years. She truly loved dogs, especially her dog, Smokey.
