Deborah E. Figarelle, age 69, passed away on February 20, 2026, peacefully surrounded by love after a courageous journey with cancer. Her final days were marked by the same quiet strength and deep devotion that defined her life.

Deborah was a woman of warmth, resilience, and deep family love. She carried herself with grace through life’s joys and hardships, always putting those she loved first. Her presence was steady, her heart generous, and her devotion to her family unwavering.

She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend. To know her was to know loyalty, tenderness, and strength. She had a way of making others feel safe and cared for simply by being near.

Deborah faced illness with dignity and courage. Even in her most difficult days, her love for her family remained clear. Her legacy lives on in the values she instilled, the memories she created, and the love she gave so freely.

She is survived by her husband, Michael Figarelle; children, Tara (Michael LaBonte) and Ray Brummett; grandchildren; great-grandchildren; siblings; and extended family who will carry her memory forward with deep gratitude and love.

A private gathering will be held at a future date.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you hold your loved ones close and cherish the time you have together — something Deborah always did.
