Debra Marano Hefferan Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate Debra Marano Hefferan of Chatham, New Jersey, whose life came to an end on January 24, 2026, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Debra farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Debra is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Angela Marano and John Marano. She is survived by: her husband Dr. James Hefferan of Chatham, NJ; her daughters, Melissa, Laura and Christina; and her son-in-law Zachary Porcello.
