Debra Welch Obituary

Debra Lynn Holochuk Welch, 67, of Fenelton, passed away peacefully in her home on Saturday, March 26, 2022.
She was born July 20, 1954, in Butler, and was the daughter of the late Adam Holochuk and the late Gladys McCleary Holochuk.
Debra spent her life working as a cook in several different settings and locations. She enjoyed cooking and baking for the holidays and spending time with her family.
Although she may have had a stubborn streak, she was loved by many. She had a love for animals, and never found herself without a companion by her side. She enjoyed gardening throughout the summer, and always ensured that her flower beds and garden were well tended. She cherished spending time at her son's farm and being among the sheep.
She is survived by her special friend and partner, Sloan Hanson; her two very special fur babies, Sutter and Stella; one daughter, Jennifer Vlaminck and special friend, Joseph Novak, of Farmington, Minn.; two sons, John-Adam Day of Raymond, Minn., and Isaac Lalim and husband, Timothy Bishop, of Creekside, Pa.; a very special adopted daughter through marriage, Amanda Day of New London, Minn.; her grandchildren, Emily and Elijah Vlaminck, and Zachary, Logan, Lana and Orion Day; her sister, Sandy Kilgore (Bob) of Grove City; her brother, Keith "Butch" Holochuk; two nephews and a niece; and many loved grand-fur babies.
She was preceded in death by both of her parents.
WELCH - Per her wishes, there will be no public visitation for Debra Lynn Holochuk Welch, who died Saturday, March 26, 2022.
Arrangements were handled by THOMPSON-MILLER FUNERAL HOME, Butler.

Sloan, Isaac, Tim and family,
Hoping you find comfort and peace in the wonderful memories made in the times you shared. She was a wonderful friend to me and it was an honor and privilege to be considered part of her family. I will miss sitting on the porch and our long talks and many, many laughs. She will always have a special place in my heart and there will never be another like her. Love you all!!
