Debra Fisher
WATERVILLE – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Debra Fisher, a beloved mother, Nana, sister, and friend, who left this world on Jan. 28, 2026, at the age of 62.
Born in Waterville on August 2, 1963, Debra, also known as Debbie, was a resident of Albion, then later Winslow where her spirit and love for life touched the hearts of many.
Debbie was the daughter of Douglas and Shirley Fisher and was preceded in death by her beloved grandmother, Doris Morang; her father, Douglas Fisher; her brother, Douglas Fisher; her sister, Dori Fisher; and many cherished uncles and friends. Despite these profound losses, her mother, Shirley Fisher, and her brothers, Mike and Mark Fisher, nephew Kevin Emerson ll, nieces Ceira Emerson-Moody, Bracie Mills, cousins Margo Morang Kool and Craig Hall remain to celebrate her life and honor her memory.
Debbie was the proud mother of three sons, Joshua Dunn, Justin Dunn, and Clay Thibodeau II, who were the light of her life. In her role as “Nana,” she reveled in the joy her grandchildren brought her: Haley Dunn, Brook Dunn, Jayda Dunn, Silas Stanton, twins Ava and Ella Small. She cherished every moment with them, making memories that will live on in their hearts forever.
Debbie had great joy in raising her boys in the beautiful backcountry of Albion. Whether hosting gatherings by her pool or around a bonfire with friends, she created a warm and inviting space filled with laughter, music, and love. Her home was a sanctuary for many, a place where everyone felt welcome. Debbie loved to spend time at the Chez with her close friends, where they would share stories, laughter, and create unforgettable memories.
Her battle with kidney failure/Diabetes was a challenging chapter in her life, yet she faced it with remarkable strength and grace. The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the exceptional team at Maine General Hospital in Augusta, including the dedicated nurses and doctors at Terrance West, for their compassionate care during her illness.
Debbie’s family will be hosting a memorial service, honoring her memory in a manner she would have cherished. In the spring, they will announce a memorial gathering to celebrate her life, where all who knew and loved her are welcome to share their fond memories and stories.
Thank you to all her friends and family that helped her over these last few years! Rest in peace, Mom/Nana. You will be deeply missed, but your spirit will forever shine brightly in our memories.
