Deborah L. Lince, 68, of Johnstown, NY, passed away on Sunday, January 26, 2025, at home surrounded by her beloved family.

She was born on December 30, 1956, in Rhode Island to the late Walter and Loretta (White) Lince. Her family moved to Gloversville when she was young, and she attended Gloversville School District. Afterwards, she began her lifelong career working in various factories. Most recently, she worked as a machine operator for Amsterdam Print & Litho, where she retired after 12 years of employment.

Deborah enjoyed going bowling and playing bingo. She loved to spend her summers going to garage sales and taking rides anywhere, as long as she was outside doing something. She was always making jokes and making people laugh. She was a social butterfly, no matter where she went everyone enjoyed her presence. Her favorite past time was to park her car in different local places and people watch with her family.
