Debra J. Ricci

December 11, 1957 — October 24, 2024

Debra Ricci, 66 of North Providence passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on October 24, 2024. She is survived by her loving husband, Vincent Ricci, their two daughters, Pamela Ricci (Joseph Belluscio), Amanda Brockway (Andrew Brockway). Her three grandsons, whom she loved more than life itself, Luca, Lincoln, and Logan. She is also survived by her mother, Velma Beaulieu, her sister Donna Beaulieu, and her brothers David Beaulieu (Lyly), Daniel Beaulieu (Deborah) and Dennis Beaulieu (Amy Cordon). She also leaves two nephews, Daniel and Dennis Beaulieu. She was predeceased by her father, Ernest Beaulieu.

Debra worked at Collette Vacations for the past 16 years. She absolutely loved her job and that passion led her to travel the world seeing many different countries and amazing sights, including the pyramids and most recently taking a trip through the Canadian Rockies with her husband.

When Debra wasn't traveling, she enjoyed spending as much time with her grandsons as possible and loved spoiling them whenever she had the chance. She enjoyed going on day trips and weekend adventures with her daughters, whether it be a simple day at the outlets or the occasional breakfast in Maine.

Debra loved to crochet and would do so around the clock making gorgeous blankets, hats and purses, never accepting a dime for her work. She loved to make people smile by gifting them with one of her pieces. She would spend most Fridays with her "crochet crew" who were family to her. Debra was very loved and will be missed by many.
