Debra Siefer Obituary
LIMA -- Debra Jean Siefer, 71 of Lima, passed away Saturday, November 1, 2025, at 9:15 a.m., at her residence.
She was born November 25, 1953, in Ottawa, to William and Patricia (Hollis) Trenkamp who preceded her in death.
Survivors include her children: Kristi Blauvelt and Brent Siefer both of Lima; grandchildren: Austin Blauvelt, Dakota Blauvelt and Zoey Blauvelt; siblings: Jerry (Jane) Carpenter of Ottawa, Ed (Missy) Carpenter, Katie (Mike) Jones and Laura Caudill all of Lima; and her longtime partner, George Holliday of Lima, OH.
Debra was preceded in death by the following siblings: Carolyn Fannin, Linda Ricker, William Carpenter and Jane Betz.
She was a graduate of Ottawa-Glandorf High School and had been a stay at home provider for her family, spending time with her children and grandchildren. Her warmth made people feel welcome in her home and she would give you the blouse off of her back if you needed it.
