Deborah (Debbie) Ann Garzarella joined our Holy Father in heaven on Monday morning February 10, 2025. Debbie was born to Florence and John Garzarella on March 6, 1969. For just shy of 56 years Debbie blessed her family and friends with immeasurable joy. Her wit, kindness and pure love of life will be sorely missed. Debbie LOVED Christmas and kept it’s spirit alive daily just as Charles Dickens wrote for Ebenezer Scrooge “I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all year”.
Debbie is survived by sister Donna DeLuca, nephew Nicholas DeLuca, niece Erica DeLuca and husband Kyle Butler, sister Bonnie Garzarella and husband Fred Toroni, nephew Jonathan Toroni, nephew Blaise Toroni and wife Samantha Toroni and grandnieces Francesca and Antoniette Toroni. She was predeceased by her beloved parents and brother-in-law Louis DeLuca.
Calling hours will be held Friday, February 14, 2025 from 9:30-11:00 am at Our Lady of the Assumption Parish, 35 Old Eagle School Rd, Wayne, PA 19087. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at OLA 11:00 am after calling hours.
