April 29, 2021 Debra Goldberg Davidson, 62, passed away peacefully early Thursday morning in the comfort of her mom's home with her family by her side. Born on April 4, 1959 in Syracuse to Arnold and Lois Hodis Goldberg, she grew up in Syracuse until moving to Atlanta about 12 years ago where she met her then future husband who became the love of her life. They were married in Atlanta and then settled in LaFollette, TN. She loved the south; especially the countryside, the lakes, and the Tennessee mountains. Debbie was a graduate of Boston University. She was a successful and creative entrepreneur who was the founder of Bracellettas Jewelry. She was a loving daughter, wife, sister, aunt and friend to so many. She was the life of the party and although she had no children of her own, she was the best aunt to not only her nieces and nephews, but an aunt to all her cousins children as well as her friends' children. Debbie will be missed by so many. Her memory will make those that loved her laugh and smile. She possessed an Infectious laugh and always shared a genuine concern for the welfare of others. Her family includes her husband and best friend Chris Davidson, her sister Dr. Susan (David) Rifkin, her twin brother Michael (Jacki) Goldberg, her mother Lois Goldberg, her nephews Dr. Zachary (Alexa) Rifkin, Kaunor Davidson, Will Davidson, and Hayden Davidson; her nieces Dani (Adi) Vaknin, Natalie Goldberg, and Laurin Goldberg; her mother-in-law Rosemary Davidson; brothers-in-law John Davidson, Jamie Davidson, and Billy Davidson; and a large and loving extended family. Debbie loved her dog who she rescued while she was making barley soup, hence the name Barley. Private services will be for the immediate family.
