LACONIA ---- Debra Gelinas, passed away on October 28, 2024, at the age of 73.
Born in September 1951, she was a firecracker with a sharp wit, a love for fun and a personality that left an impression on everyone who had the honor of knowing her.
Debra had many passions in life, her legendary lasagna, her love for the casino, her home away from home; The Camp, and her deep admiration for Elvis Presley. But nothing compared to the absolute love of her life, Donald Gelinas, who held her heart like no other. She lived life on her own terms, with a bold spirit and a flair that made her unforgettable.
She is survived by her son David, daughter Debra, seven grandchildren, Ariel, Chance, Joshua, Starr, Katie, Christopher and Claudia, and five great-grandchildren, Ollie, Chloe, Charlotte, Salem and Levi.
A Celebration of her Life and Burial will be held on Friday, May 16, 2025, at 1:00pm, at Forest Hill Cemetery, in Derry, NH. Friends and family are invited to gather and honor her memory.
Debra was one of a kind, full of humor, fire and love. She will be deeply missed and never forgotten.
