KELLER – Deborah Ann, 66, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware; formerly of Easton, Maryland; native of Ehrenfeld, Pennsylvania; died December 11, 2022, at Delaware Hospice. Born February 1, 1956, in Johnstown, Pennsylvania; daughter of the late Albert J. and Joan C. (Romese) Keller.
Survived by aunt, Yvonne (Romese), widow of Paul Kruper, Ehrenfeld; many dear lifelong friends; and precious cats, Henley and Harmony.
Deb was a graduate of Forest Hills High School, class of 1974. She earned an undergraduate degree in individual and family studies from Pennsylvania State University and her master’s degree in personnel administration from Michigan State University. Her professional life was a source of deep pride and personal fulfillment. She had extensive experience in human resource management most recently at Qlarant, Strayer Education, Suburban Hospital Healthcare Systems, Nextel Communications, and for a variety of businesses at General Electric. The breadth and depth of her knowledge and insight was only matched by her compassionate understanding for others. She was well read with a lifelong interest in learning. But her true wealth was in the many close friendships she cultivated and cherished.
Honoring her wishes, a private committal service will be held in the spring of 2023 at St. Marys Catholic Cemetery, New Germany, Pennsylvania.
Arrangements by Charles O. Dimond Funeral Home, Inc., South Fork.
