Deborah Nicole Pitagno

Deborah Nicole Pitagno, 65, of Rocky Point, New York, passed away on August 12, 2026. Born July 15, 1961, Deborah will be remembered with deep respect and enduring gratitude for a life shaped by quiet strength, steady devotion, and a generous spirit that touched many.

Deborah dedicated her professional life to serving others as a Special Education Teacher. In that work, her patience and care were evident—offered thoughtfully, day after day—reflecting a commitment that was both diligent and deeply humane.

Deborah met her husband, Thomas, on the Port Jefferson ferry, and they were married for 25 years. Together they raised their two beloved children, Michael and Sarah. Deborah’s love extended fully to her brother Michael Savino and her daughter-in-law Alex. With great care to her many spoiled fur babies.

In her personal life, Deborah found meaning and calm in crafting, nature, and healing. She loved the beach and held close a sense of spirituality that guided her interests in gemology and Reiki. A teacher at heart, she also expressed herself as an artist and poet, bringing boldness and reflection to the way she moved through the world.

A memorial service will be held at O. B. Davis Funeral Homes, 1001 Route 25a, Miller Place, NY 11764, on August 23, 2026, from 3:00 pm to 7:00 pm.
