It is with broken hearts that we share the passing of our beloved mom, wife, sister, and friend, Deborah O’Connor.

Born and raised in Southern California, she eventually made her way to Colorado, where she built a beautiful life and continued to raise her family. In retirement, she settled in Florida, where she enjoyed the sunshine and the ocean.

She is survived by her loving husband, Kevin; her daughter, Colleen; her two sons, Brett and Ryan; her brother, Robert; and her beloved Goldendoodle, Summer.

More than anything, she loved her family. She was the kind of person who always put others first, offered a listening ear, and made everyone feel welcome. She was an incredible wife, mother, daughter, and sister, and the love she gave so freely will stay with us forever.

She found joy in the things she loved most, spending time by the ocean, getting lost in a good book, and caring for her garden. Her yard was the one everyone admired, and she took so much pride in every flower, plant, and detail. It wasn't just a garden; it was a reflection of the care and love she put into everything she touched.

She leaves behind a lifetime of memories, laughter, and unconditional love. While we will miss her more than words can express, we are grateful for the time we had with her and the lessons she taught us about kindness, strength, and loving deeply.

We will carry her with us always. In every ocean breeze, every blooming flower, and every moment spent with the people we love.

Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever our mom.
