Deborah Day Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Rochette Funeral Home & Cremation Services on Feb. 4, 2026.
Deborah Lee Day, age 60, passed away surrounded by loved ones. Deborah was a devoted mother, grandmother, wife, and sister whose life centered around her family. A true family person, she found her greatest happiness in being with her children and grandchildren.
Deborah was the proud mother of three children: Katie and her husband Justin of Shirley, Ma, Kevin and his wife Justine of Shirley, Ma, and Kara of Merrimack, nh. She was a loving and devoted grandmother to her eleven granddaughters: Kayleigh, Mackenzie, Jessica, Ryleigh, Téa, Charlye, Sofia, Rosalynn, Salem, Nevaeh, and Kingsley, who were her pride and joy.
She is survived by her beloved husband, Steve, who was her world and constant companion.
Deborah is also survived by her brothers: Donny and his wife Cathey of Westfield, Ma David and his wife Shelia of Fitchburg ma and Danny and his wife Jennifer of Palm City, Fl, along with many nieces and nephews.
She attended school in Acton-Boxborough, Ma. Deborah loved the outdoors and enjoyed camping and spending time in Tennessee, a place that held a special spot in her heart. She was a devoted fan of country music and could often be found listening to her favorite songs. She also loved crafts with her grandchildren and baking, sharing her creativity and homemade treats with those she loved.
Deborah was predeceased by her mother, Judith Churchill; her father, Charles Day; her stepfather, Richard Churchill and widow to Richard Davis.
Deborah will be remembered for her warm heart, her love of family, and the joy she brought into the lives of everyone around her. Her memory will live on through her children, grandchildren, and all who were fortunate enough to know and love her.
A celebration of life will be discussed at a later date
