Deborah Ann Sikes Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Deborah Ann DiGregorio Sikes 8/27/1962-11/30/2020 The sun has set on a kind and beautiful soul. Her wit and courage were not enough to save her from the ravages the Big-C inflicted on her body. We choose not to reflect on her last days but will remember her smile, her self-effacing way. Debbie could turn any situation into a comedy routine and have her audience rolling with laughter. No one could deny her work ethics and the love she had for her family. This happened much too soon, but she can now take a rest from her pain and suffering. The one thing that cannot be taken from us are the memories. Debbie will live forever in our minds and in our hearts. We will all have to take a cue from her life and learn to rebound. Deb showed us this with her courage. We will have to honor that by being strong and imparting that virtue to those of us who will follow. We must be grateful for the time we had her in our lives and make sure she is never forgotten. Rest in Peace my beautiful daughter, my first born. This is not the order of things and I am consumed with the guilt of burying my child. Forgive me for being incapable of seeing you in the throes of your suffering. I want only to think of you as I last saw you, laughing, joking and teasing your father with exaggerated stories. Let our love carry you to a better place. Gerry, it’s your turn to take care of her.
