Debra Muzzey Obituary

Debra Ann Muzzey

Enfield, NH - Debra Ann Muzzey, 70, passed at The Jack Byrne Center in Lebanon, NH, on Sunday, September 7, 2025, after a long battle with Parkinson's Disease.

Debra was born in Hanover, NH on September 23, 1954, to Jennie A. (Dimond) and James W. Sousa.

Debra met Charlie Muzzey at the Canaan Fair, beginning a 20-year love affair, which culminated with their marriage in 1989. She and Charlie shared 55 wonderful years together.

Debra and Charlie enjoyed dancing, snowmobiling, watching NASCAR, and going on motorcycle rides together. Debra did crafts with her mother and her sister and enjoyed sewing, knitting, and crocheting. She made many lap-top quilts for the Elks and Legion to be given to veterans.

Debra had a kind and loving heart and was devoted to her family. She worked with her cousin, Mike, in his cleaning business and cared for Charlie's mother in their home before her passing.

In addition to her parents, Debra was preceded in death by her brother, Ronnie Sousa. She is survived by her husband, Charles H. Muzzey Jr. of Enfield, NH; sister, Elaine (Bill) Prior of Orange, NH; brother, Mike Sousa of Orange, NH; sisters-in-law, Pauline Blish and Donna Lockwood; brothers-in-law, Ronnie Muzzey and Michael Muzzey Sr.; nephew, Mike Muzzey Jr.; close friend, Tom Lacroix; and many other family members and friends.

Debra's family would like to thank the Lebanon Elks for their love and support through this difficult time, as well as the wonderful staff at the Jack Byrne Center and the VT & NH Visiting Nurse Association for the tender care given to Debra.

I am so sorry to learn of Deb's passing. She and I would talk crafts when we both worked at Dartmouth Printing. She was a sweet, kind person, and a fun workplace friend!
