Deborah G. Zeoli

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Deborah who left us on Monday, June 23, 2025, at the age of 76.
Words cannot express how much she will be missed. Born in Norwalk Connecticut, she was the daughter of the late Ralph and Dorothy Smith. She lived a simple, heartfelt life, finding joy in the little things. From a young age Deborah had a love for animals. She continued that love by having several pets throughout her life. Deborah was the owner of a small pet sitting service. She had very special clients Amy and Sue Ann, which she worked for over 26 years taking care of several of their pets.
Deborah is survived by her sister, Christina Smith Gagne Salley. They had a very special relationship. There was not a day that passed that they ever missed their daily phone calls, sometimes lasting for hours. She also never missed her daily call to her niece Denise, which she also had a very close relationship with.
Deborah's love for her sister's kids was limitless beginning when they were young and continuing as she watched them grow into adults.
Deborah is also survived by her sister's children. She cherished unique and special relationships with each of her beloved nieces and nephews. She touched all our hearts. She is survived by Paul Gagne, Roger Gagne, Denise Gagne Foremanek and Steve, Laurie Gagne Chariott, Jason Salley, Jeremy Salley and Missy, Kim Salley MacDougall and Johny, and Paul Salley. Roger and Jeremy always made sure all the little things were taken care of for her. She would make one phone call and, one of them would be right over to her home. She was "loved". Deborah also leaves behind many great nieces and nephews: Melissa, Jeffrey, Danielle, Christopher, Christina, Taylor,Jaxson, Elvis, Willa, Elizabeth, and Pauly.
We are deeply heartbroken by her passing. We will miss her kindness, laughter, and her daily phone calls. Her cherished memories will forever remain in our hearts. Until we meet again. Rest in peace Deb.
