Deborah Lynn Roncaglione

With deep love and sorrow, we announce the passing of Deborah Lynn Roncaglione, age 69, who passed peacefully on June 19, 2025, at the home of her loving daughter and son-in-law, Scott and Crystal Robertson, in Jacksonville, Florida. Surrounded by her family she loved more than anything.

Deborah was a faithful servant, a devoted mother, and a woman whose life was a living example of grace, compassion, and quiet strength.

Born on July 20, 1955, in Carbondale, Illinois. She lived each day with a generous heart, steady hands, and a soul full of love.  She was blessed with the joy of 7 daughters, 16 grandchildren and 10 greatgrandchildren, who were the light of her life. Her life was rooted in faith and family.

She was the proud mother of Tiffany Dianne Collins, Shannon Alisha Roncaglione, Cassandra Lynn Roncaglione, Crystal Dawn Robertson (spouse: Scott Robertson), Shawndra Lee Roncaglione, Ashley Nicole Roncaglione, and Marissa Danielle Mobley (spouse: Casey Mobley).
Grandchildren: Brandalynn Taylor Collins, Mason Chandler Collins, Alyssia Tyneal Shaw, Trinity Roncaglione, Taniya Roncaglione, Dalton Cole Tyre, Christian Alexander Robertson, Keyon Pride, Kedrick Roncaglione Whitten, Keyshaun Whitten, Melvin “VinCeti`” Roncaglione Brown, Vada Lynn Roncaglione Brown, Ashton Mobley, Rhett Mobley, Gracen Mobley, and Le’Vonte Dion Larry, Jr. Great-Grandchildren: Kylan David Keith, Beckett Kase Keith, Kayvin Quinn Nolan Collins, Aybree Elise Sanders, Kadence Ace Sanders, Jordan KASH Sanders, Ivy Reese Shaw, Kali Javaya Harden, Ny’Ala Roncaglione, and Tatum Roncaglione. Deborah is also survived by her two loving brothers, Jimmy Coulter and Chance Coulter, who remained close to her heart throughout her life. Their bond was one of unconditional love, loyalty, and family strength that stood the test of time.

For 28 years, Deborah served her community with grace and dedication as a waitress at Western Sizzlin’ Steakhouse in Jesup, Georgia. To a lot, she was more than a friendly face she was family. Her kindness, humor, and sincerity left a lasting impression on everyone she met.

Deborah found joy in life’s pleasures, sparkly treasures, music with the windows down, singing her heart out at karaoke, and quiet moments with those she held dear. Her strength, her laughter, and her unconditional love will be deeply missed, but forever remembered. 

She lived with purpose. She loved without conditions. And she left this world with her faith fulfilled and her legacy secure.
 

Now, with Heaven’s gates open wide, Deborah is reunited with her beloved husband, Reco Roncaglione. Hand in hand, they walk together once again whole, at peace, and surrounded by eternal love in the presence of the Lord.
