Our Mom, Deborah K. Acker, 60, of Waterville, passed away Wednesday, March 20, 2019 at Faxton-St. Luke’s Healthcare surrounded by her loving family. Mom was born July 4, 1958 in New Hartford, the daughter of the late Robert B. and Betty P. Kniffin and was a graduate of New Hartford High School. On June 12, 1976, she married Gary F. Acker. Many knew her from her days as branch manager of the bank in Waterville. For the last 10 years she was employed by Defense Finance and Accounting Services (DFAS) in Rome. She was a member of Waterville Rotary and was an avid member of the First Presbyterian Church in Waterville, where she shared her voice in the choir for many years.
Our mom was a talented seamstress, who loved sewing clothing for her grandchildren- especially their much-loved Christmas pajamas. She loved a good cup of tea. Gardening, working outside on her lawn, traveling, camping, and spending time with her family were especially important to her.
Mom is survived by her loving, faithful companion- our father, Gary Acker of Waterville; her children, Jason (Courtney) Acker of Waterville; Daniel (Debra) Acker of New Hartford; Ryan (Jane) Acker of Nassau, NY; Erin (Timothy) Graham of Brighton, CO; sisters and brothers-in-law, Sharon Wormwood of Clifton Park; Pam (Bruce) Youmans of Brookfield; Robin (Brian) Kruse of Taunton, MA; her beloved grandchildren, Garent, Jude, Ava, Aidan, Kairi, Colin, Barrett, and Lillie; several nieces, nephews, and cousins.
The family offers their heartfelt thanks to the nurses and staff on the 6th floor and ICU unit of Faxton- St. Lukes Healthcare for their kindness and compassion.
Funeral services will be held at Noon on Sunday, March 24, 2019 at the Three Steeples Church, Paris Hill, NY.
Interment will be at a later date in St. Bernard’s Cemetery, Waterville.
Friends are invited to call at the Burgess & Tedesco Funeral Home, 210 E. Main St., Waterville on Saturday from 4-6pm.

GENERAL DOLLAR "PLUS" - to replace GREAT A in West Winfield
West Winfield residents won't be without a food store for long as the new Dollar General Plus will be opening this summer to replace the 'Great American' that closed. While Family Dollar and Dollar Tree are closing a large number of stores, Dollar General is still expanding into communities like West Winfield. It's good to hear that Dollar General 'Plus' is officially opening in West Winfield at the end of June or beginning of July. The community has been scrambling since the Great American closed for good in February. Dollar General Plus locations are larger than traditional Dollar General stores that have more coolers/freezers to keep more perishable items in stock. We're told they will carry fresh produce, meat, milk, bread, snacks and more.
