Debraanne "Debbie" Migliaccio, 62, of Mahwah, New Jersey, passed away on November 1, 2023, surrounded by the greatest love of her life: her children. She was a beloved mother to son Joseph Migliaccio Jr., daughter Alyssa Venusti, and son-in-law Jonathan Venusti, a caring daughter of Theresa and William Stackles, and sister of Robert Stackles (Zsa Zsa Stackles).
Born in Jersey City and raised in Fair Lawn, Debbie later attended William Paterson University, where she went on to teach special education. After starting her family, Debbie worked as an office manager at a private medical practice for Dr. John L. Penny and eventually Dr. Robert Baklajian, where she continued with them for over 25 years. Her dedication and love for her patients were limitless.
While in Mahwah, she flourished with the best of friends and the community she surrounded herself with. She was a selfless and devoted soul who would help anyone in need.
Debbie shared a deep bond with her aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews, as well as her extended family. She cherished all the family traditions that were carried out annually. Her favorite and most memorable times in life were celebrating her family and friends through all their life's milestones.
Debbie loved to spend time cooking, crafting, and traveling with her children. She will be dearly missed by all, including her loving four-legged companion, Arty.
