Deborah Sisco Obituary
Debby was born and raised in Vermont, where she developed her deep love of reading, sharing food, and helping others.
Debby dedicated over thirty years to her career as a public servant and Communications and Ethics Officer at the Environmental Protection Agency.
Debby's spirit of generosity was so immense, the best way to honor her memory is by sustaining that spirit with a donation to one of her preferred charities: The Vermont Food Bank, Saint Jude Children's Research Hospital, and Planned Parenthood.
The family is welcoming loved ones to gather for an informal Celebration of Life 11:00 am Sunday, April 30th at Claude Moore Park, Pavilion One (weather permitting). In the event of inclement weather, the event will take place at the Ashburn-Sterling Masonic Lodge 288 Deborah June "Debby" (nee Lawson) Sisco

To the Family of Debbie Sisco.
I was so saddened to learn of Debbie's passing.
I rode in the vanpool from Ashburn, VA, to Crystal City (Arlington, VA) with Debbie for about 10 years. She was a very dear and kind person, and a dedicated civil servant to our country. I know she will be missed by all who knew her.
My thoughts and prayers are with you in the days ahead.
With deepest sympathy,
Juanita Havener

Debby was incredibly friendly and I am so sad to hear of her passing. She was amazing and always so kind. She helped me feel at home at work and made it a better place because she was here. My heart is with her family. Deepest condolences, Mary

To the Family of Debbie Sisco - I've known Debbie since 2005 when I started working for BEAD/EPA . She was always so helpful to me and carried a great smile. She was a beautiful person inside and out. Family remember all of the good times and just hold on to God's unchanging Hands and He will not let you fall, but will bring you peace. My prayers are with you all.

Debby and I worked together for years in EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs. She always found a way to lighten the mood about team "challenges" and opportunities while, at the same time, face realities. She was such a valuable member of the staff.
