Ida was born in Monterey, California on November 8, 1931, to Angelina and Joseph Flores. As a child, the family moved to San Francisco where she attended Marina Middle School and Galileo High School. After ten years of courtship, she married her beloved husband, Elton Debrunner, in 1964 in Reno, Nevada. Ida gave birth to two children that she adored. She loved being a mother and devoted her life to her family. Ida was also a strong woman who won her battle against lung cancer in the mid-1990s.
Ida enjoyed traveling. She loved visiting family, taking cruises and gambling trips to Lake Tahoe and Reno. She also loved cheering for the 49ers, playing bingo, backgammon and card games. Most of all, Ida cherished cooking big meals and spending time with family and friends. She prized her role as a mother and nana and treasured her grandsons Dominic and Jack. She lived by her motto "family is the most important thing in life." Her cooking, smile and big heart will be deeply missed.
Ida is survived by her devoted children Denise Lavrov (Alex) and George (Ty).
