Deborah Narcus Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Avatar Cremation Service on Dec. 5, 2025.
Deborah Dunbar Narcus, 80, of West Palm Beach, FL passed away peacefully on Saturday November 29, 2025 of complications from dementia.

She is survived by her husband of 57 years (Lawrence Narcus) and her son Andrew (Sima) and grandchildren Cassi and Kaia of West Palm Beach, FL, cousin Ann Payne of CO and several nieces and nephews.

Born and raised in Andersen, IN, to Patricia and David Dunbar, she graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Education from Butler University and started teaching in Colorado Springs, CO where she met and married Larry stationed at the Air Force Academy in 1968, with Andy arriving in 1969.

Debby lived in many locations throughout her life (IN, MA, FL, NC, AZ) and was a lover of all animals, including many dogs (Fritzel, Mack, Angel, Bernie, Sam, Jamer, Gwen and Koda) and her beloved horse Spoon.

Debby was a licensed small aircraft pilot and vintage car racer and never shied away from adventurous activities. She spent several years in the FL school system as a substitute and full time teacher of high school Spanish, which she spoke fluently. She was a wonderful and devoted wife, mother, grandmother and friend to all that met her. Debby will be sorely missed. RIP
