Wonderful Anzalone family:
We are keeping you and all who loved Debbie in our prayers. I will never forget meeting her for the first time in Milan (with Ron & Frank, of course!) She exuded kindness and warmth, and always made us “Italy kids” feel welcome. I pray for strength for you all in the days ahead, as I know she will leave a big gap in all of your lives. With love & a big hug-
My heart is sorrowful for the passing of Debbie. However, her spirit for life, family, especially her grandkids, and living every moment to the fullest will live on in every person that she met! Prayers for her entire family!
Mike and family-
Deepest condolences from my husband and I and all America’s Auctions. My heart goes out to you and your entire family! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend the funeral due to a family vacation. We will be there in spirit- sending thoughts and prayers your way!

I’m sorry for you loss she will be missed I know
I never had the honor of meeting Debbie, but through Dana’s stories and love for her, I feel like I came to know a woman whose heart was made of pure love. Her kindness, warmth, and gentle spirit clearly touched everyone around her. While her passing brings deep sorrow, there’s comfort in knowing her soul is now free from earthly pain and at peace. I truly believe she will be there to greet her loved ones someday in heaven, with that same radiant love she shared in life. Sending all my love and heartfelt condolences to Dana and the entire family.
I only spoke to Debbie a couple of times but saw her often out with Dana taking off for outings and planting flowers in Dana’s back garden. She was so glamorous and gracious. I heard so much from Dana about how Debbie was determined to live her life to the fullest even with all of the medical she was receiving. What an example she left for her family and friends of how to live life with bravery. I wish love and comfort to all of her loved ones.
Debbie was such a sweet and caring person and I was lucky to have known her. She was very supportive helping me through some difficult times even though she was dealing with her own. My thoughts and prayers are with my great friend Ron and the Anzalone family.
I knew Debbie in my younger life but to this day I still remember her kind, caring and thoughtful personality.
I’m sure she will be missed by her family and friends.
My sincere condolences.

Debbie was a major force. She was everywhere and anywhere she was needed. We will never forget her comforting presence through our brother’s illness and passing, and years later when we lost our sister-in-law, her dear friend. She gave us strength and compassion during our most tragic of times.
You could not ask for a better daughter, wife, mother, grandma, niece, aunt, friend, human being…. Debbie would drop everything to be a comfort to those who were in need of comfort. Her strength was unparalleled. To look at her, one would never know the fight she was dealing with on a daily basis. She never had any self pity. Always thinking of others first. Easy with a laugh… She was an amazing listener, wise with advice, positive in attitude, encouraging with one’s dreams, understanding and compassionate. She inspired, and will continue to do so. There will always be a Debbie shaped void in all of us, an empty chair at the table.
Her love for her family is limitless, and will continue to be, as love never dies. We will miss you, Debbie. We already do. You inspire us to live life at our best. We will as we want to be reunited with you in heaven where you are. Thank you for everything you went out of your way to do for us. We love you so much.
My sincere condolences to Ron, Dana and all the family, she was a kind and loving woman. Godspeed Debbie.
Mike Anzalone Family,
