Obituary

Debbie passed away suddenly on Thursday May 27th.  She was 65 years of age.

Born in Winthrop, she was the beloved daughter of the late Robert A. and Dorothy M. (Derome) Froio. She grew up and attended schools in East Boston.  She lived in East Boston raising her family of three and moved to Chelsea 30 years ago.

She worked for the City of Chelsea as a crossing guard for 16 years. For 10 years she was a popular and familiar School Crossing Guard in front of St. Rose School, watching over children on their way to school and home again. In between her crossing guard duty, she worked for St. Rose preparing lunch meals as a beloved lunch mother in the school cafeteria.  Debbie retired from her work last year.

She is fondly remembered for her laidback personality, relaxing with family. She loved to joke and laugh and would always enjoy a good-natured prank for fun.

She was the beloved wife of 26 years to John M. Mark of Chelsea. The devoted mother of Peter R. Aceto of Danvers, Stacy M. McConnico of Everett, and Heidi M. Aceto of Chelsea.  Cherished grandmother of Kayla and Nik Aceto, Peter Aceto Jr., Darius and DeAndre McConnico, Carlos Nieves Jr. and Vanessa Nieves.  Adored great grandmother of Joziah Salazar. And dear sister of Robert J. Froio, Sr. of Salem.
