Debra Ann (Abbott) Bolio, age 71, a longtime resident of Dracut, passed away at her home on Monday, September 19, 2022 surrounded by her loving family.
She was born in Lowell on July 12, 1951 and was the daughter of the late John and Virginia (Gower) Abbott.
Debra worked as a waitress for over 20 years at Auto Snack in Lowell and Korner Kitchen in Dracut. During her waitressing career she enjoyed all her customers and had many regulars. One of her favorite things to do was gardening and working in her yard.
Nothing was more important to Debra than her family. Christmas was her favorite holiday and she enjoyed cooking breakfast after all the presents were opened. She loved watching TV shows with her daughter Michelle, her daily FaceTime calls with her son Brian and her Sunday shopping adventures with her daughter Kathy. Some of Debbie’s fondest memories were with her granddaughter Ashley.
Debbie is survived by her children, Michelle Brandon of Dracut, Kathy Gagne and her husband Bill of Dracut, Brian Bolio II and his wife Jeannette of Nashua, NH; her grandchildren, Ashley and her husband Shane, Juan, Melieena and her husband Tom, Jessica and her husband Ryan, and Tyler; her great-grandson, Trevor; her siblings, Roger Abbott and his wife Juanita of Dracut and Sandra Baxter and her husband James of Somerville. Debra is also survived by several loving nieces and nephews.
Sadly, along with her parents, Debra is predeceased by her siblings, David Abbott and Jo-Ann Luis.
