Lake Geneva, WI

Debra Kay Elliott (nee Beaver) age 75 years. Resident of Lake Geneva, WI. Passed to eternal life on Saturday, September 5, 2026, at St. Lukes Medical Center in Milwaukee. Debbie was born on April 16, 1951, in Viroqua, WI to the late Peter and Phyllis (nee Waddell) Beaver. She married David Elliott on December 10, 1977, in Lake Geneva, WI.

She was a devoted mother, wife, grandmother and friend who found joy in the simple things and made lasting memories wherever she went. She loved spending time at the lake and taking cruises around Geneva Lake and she loved traveling to new places and looking at all the homes along the way. She especially cherished time with her grandchildren and treasured visits with family and friends.

She had a generous heart and always was looking for ways to help others. She loved cooking for the people she cared about, enjoying coffee and conversation with friends and surprising the people she loved with thoughtful gestures. She also had a creative side and enjoyed decorating especially for the holidays.

She was known for her love of family, her friendships and her ability to bring people together. A proud captain of her bowling team, she enjoyed the camaraderie, laughter and friendships that came with it. Whether gathered around the table sharing a meal, relaxing at the lake, traveling or simply spending time with the people she loved she made every moment meaningful.

Above all she was a loving and devoted woman whose kindness, generosity and love for others will continue to live on in the hearts of everyone who knew her.

Debbie is survived by her husband of 48 years David, her children Cody (Whitney) Elliott and Tiffany (Michael) Elliot-Eck, Grandchildren Connor Melzer, Nathan Melzer, Lauren Melzer, Caiden Elliott, Olivia Eck, Cambria Eck and Carter Elliott. Also survived by nieces, nephews, cousins and many friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, daughter Kim Melzer, brother Mark Beaver, Cousin Amy Beaver and Barbara Waddell.
