With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Deborah Ann Lyon, who left this world peacefully on May 1st, 2025, at the age of 69. Deborah was a vibrant, loving soul whose warmth and laughter brightened every room she entered.

Born on October 29th, 1955, Deborah lived a life rich with love, music, and joy. She had a deep passion for concerts—always eager to experience the energy of live music—and she found serenity and adventure on the open seas while cruising. A true lover of stories, Deborah cherished quiet hours with a good book in hand. Yet above all, she took the greatest pride in her roles as a devoted wife, cherished daughter, and the “best aunt ever” to her many adoring nieces and nephews.

Deborah is survived by her beloved husband of 25 years, Jimi, whose love and companionship were the center of her world. She also leaves behind her loving mother Annabelle Tihart and Annabelle’s husband, Frank, four sisters, and a large extended family of nieces and nephews who will forever treasure her kindness, humor, and unwavering support.

Her legacy is one of love, laughter, and generosity. Deborah’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who were lucky enough to know her.

She will be dearly missed, but never forgotten.
