DEBORAH JO ROJAS

In Loving Memory of Deborah Rojas

April 3, 1951 – January 14th, 2025

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Debbie Rojas, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, who left us peacefully on January 14th, 2025 at the age of 73.

Debbie was born on April 3, 1951, in California. She was one of six children. From an early age, she was known for her warmth, generosity, and larger-than-life personality. In 1972, Debbie married the love of her life, Mike, beginning a beautiful journey of over 50 years of marriage. Mike and Debbie have been inseparable ever since.

Debbie was known by most as Nana. Anyone who had the privilege of meeting her—whether it was during a single interaction or throughout the years —likely walked away with at least one “Nana story.” She will always be remembered as Nana above all else: the energy, love, and glue of her household. Debbie’s home wasn’t just for her family; it was a home for friends, neighbors, and, of course, dogs. She had a knack for creating a warm and welcoming space, ensuring no one ever went cold or hungry as long as she was there to help.

Debbie is survived by her husband, Michael; her two children, Adam and Terah; and her three grandchildren, Nick, Tani, and Sam. She will be truly missed and forever remembered by all who knew and loved her.

A celebration of Debbie’s life will be held on February 8th. If you are interested in attending, please contact Nick Brazzill (951)224-5301 or Tani Rojas (626) 782-9704

Friends and family are invited to gather, share memories, and honor the life of this truly special woman.
