Deborah Ann Easter Easley

Deborah Ann Easter Easley passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family on January 29, 2016, at the age of 56. She was a native of Metairie, LA and a resident of Folsom, LA. Deborah thrived as a fine dining server in New Orleans restaurants for many years before moving to Folsom, La. Deborah had a green thumb and she absolutely loved gardening. Her gardens flourished with unique tropical flowers. She tried her hand at farming when she moved to Folsom, and for a stint she sold her organic, heirloom vegetables at the local farmers markets. A talented artist, she loved to create. She sewed beautiful handmade baby comforters, which she sold in a local store. Her murals were featured in Zephyr stadium and in bars and homes around New Orleans. She instilled creativity into those around her- -even her children's walls were painted with murals. Deborah loved music and enjoyed playing her guitar. She was full of life, loved meeting new people, and had a contagious laugh. She never met a stranger. Deborah was devoted to her husband, siblings, children and grandchildren, and greatly valued friendships. Beloved wife of 15 years to David Easley. Daughter of the late Helen Louise Scott Easter and the late Richard Jess Easter.
