In Loving Memory of Deanna Buckland-Palermo
Deanna, a beautiful soul with sparkling blue eyes and golden hair, passed away surrounded by the love she gave so freely. She had a song for every moment, a laugh that filled every room, and a heart that belonged to her husband, children and grandchildren. Her goofiness, kindness, and endless love made life brighter for all who knew her.
Though she’s gone from our sight, her melody will play on in the hearts of those who loved her most.

Deanna passed away suddenly on October 20, 2025. She is predeceased by her parents Darlene Hewitt and Charles Buckland, sister Charlene Buckland and stepson Jordan Palermo. Survived by her husband Ronald Palermo Jr., her daughters Megan Buckland and Rebecca Buckland, sons Hunter Palermo and Joshua Palermo, father in law Ronald Palermo Sr., grandchildren Delilah, Jaida, Elaina and Alexis, nephew Joshua Buckland, nieces Chelene and Chelby Buckland, many cousins and other relatives.

Calling hours will be Sunday October 26th, from 5-9pm at Dierna Funeral Home 230 Culver Road. (near Norton St.)
