Debra Yvonne Daniels, who was born in East Hampton on Jan. 15, 1953, one of four children of the former Stella Grace and Kenneth Reney, died at home in Sebastian, Fla., on Jan. 12. She had been ill with diabetes and was three days shy of her 65th birthday. 

She graduated from East Hampton High School in 1971 and a year later married Terry Daniels of Amagansett, who survives. The couple lived in East Hampton for several years before moving to Sebastian. While she was here, she worked at a grocery store in Bridgehampton. In Sebastian, Ms. Daniels was a cashier for 32 years at a Publix supermarket. 

She and her husband had two daughters, Jessica Daniels and Michelle Watford of Sebastian, both of whom survive, as do six granddaughters.

Her sister Darlene Snyder of East Hampton said that Ms. Daniels enjoyed traveling with her family and spending time with her granddaughters. Her other sister, Marilyn DeCosta of Sebastian, and a brother, Kenneth Reney Jr. of East Hampton, also survive.

A service was held at Seawinds Funeral Home in Sebastian, followed by burial at Sebastian Cemetery.
