Debbie Wimsatt

Debbie Wimsatt

“Life is good!” was Debbie Wimsatt’s life motto and this embodies her beautiful spirit and optimistic personality. But more than anything, Debbie lived for her grandson, Collin (2 years), her sons Jeremy (40 years) and Cory Reinle (36 years), and her husband Mike Wimsatt (61 years). She was a fiercely proud Mother and Mamaw and is remembered for her sacrifices and undying loyalty to her boys. This love extended to Jeremy and Cory’s friends, and Debbie acted as a mother figure for many of their peers and to her stepsons Chris (43 years), Jason (deceased), and Dylan Wimsatt (31 years). She is remembered for her ability to “accept people as they are”, regardless of their appearance or beliefs. She loved new life experiences and good food, and scandalous conversation both funny and philosophical. Debbie was an active community member in the Bardstown area and loved her work as the Director of Sales at Inspirations of Mt. Washington.

Unfortunately, Debbie Wimsatt passed away unexpectedly on Monday June 24, 2024 at Jewish Hospital in Louisville. She was 64 years old. Debbie was preceded in death by her stepson, Jason Michael Wimsatt. She is survived by her husband, Mike Wimsatt of Bardstown; two sons, Jeremy Reinle of Houtston, Texas, and Cory (Katie O’Shaughnessy) Reinle of Bay Village, Ohio; step-sons, Christopher Wimsatt and Dylan (Melanie Bullock) Wimsatt of Bardstown; grandson, Collin Reinle of Bay Village, Ohio; parents, Jackie and Joyce Allen of Bardstown; brothers and sisters, Jackie Edward Allen II, Sharon Allen, and Steve Allen of Bardstown; and many friends, nieces and nephews.
