Obituary: Deborah ‘Debbie’ Ann Grove

DELRAY BEACH — It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Deborah “Debbie” Ann Grove. On Oct. 7, she succumbed to her long battle with cancer. She was 67.  

13085840465?profile=RESIZE_180x180Born in Wilmington, Delaware, Ms. Grove attended Mount Pleasant High School and the School of Cosmetology, later becoming the owner of the popular Charles Davis Salon in Centerville. 

After meeting the love of her life, John Belmonte, Ms. Grove moved to Delray Beach where the couple lived for 25 years. Together they enjoyed traveling overseas in exploration of the world.

Ms. Grove was a caring and fun-loving person with a wonderful sense of humor. She had a passion for animals, always having a dog by her side for her daily walks on the beach.

She was a beloved member of The Colony Beach Club for over a decade, where she cultivated many special friendships. She and John loved entertaining; she was the quintessential “hostess with mostest.” 

She was preceded in death by both of her parents, Edward Sr. and Marjorie Grove. She is survived by her brother, Edward Grove Jr., and her sister-in-law, Rosemary, as well as John Belmonte and her many extended family members. She will be deeply missed. Services are private.
