Deborah Kim Boccoleri

Deborah Kim Boccoleri (Clouse), 67, of Sherrills Ford, North Carolina, passed away on March 29, 2026.

Born on November 10, 1958, in Charlotte, North Carolina, Kim moved to San Francisco as a young woman, where she met her husband, Gary. After getting married, they settled in Livermore, California, creating a life filled with love and family. In recent years, Kim and Gary moved to Sherrills Ford, North Carolina, where they purchased her dream home on Lake Norman.

Kim and Gary loved to dance and often took lessons, always lighting up the dance floor whether it was the Two-Step or West Coast Swing. A talented cook and gracious host, she often brought together family and friends for meals and celebrations filled with dancing and laughter. She was known for having a green thumb and always had the most beautiful garden. Weekends at their houseboat on Lake Don Pedro were among her happiest times with friends and family.

Kim is survived by her husband, Gary Steven Boccoleri; daughters, Gina Marie Boccoleri and Daniela Ann Boccoleri; sister, Karen Clouse Scull; brother, Adrian Charles “Chip” Clouse Jr.; and her beloved King Charles spaniel, Sansa.

She will be remembered for her warmth, generosity, and the joy she brought to all who knew her.
