Dean David Sikora, age 52, of Sevens Fields passed away unexpectedly on June 26, 2025, at his residence.
Dean was born on March 29, 1973, in McKeesport to David and Gloria (DiMarco) Sikora, attended Serra Catholic High School, and graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Business Logistics. He spent the last 25 years as a valued team member at GlaxoSmithKline, where his dedication and expertise left a lasting impact on his colleagues and the company.
Dean enjoyed many hobbies and activities such as golfing, attending live music concerts, and playing basketball. He cherished his time outdoors, taking long walks, especially on the beach, and he took great pride in caring for his home and tailgating with friends before sporting events. Above all he enjoyed spending time with his family and exposing his children to a wide variety of experiences. Dean was not only a coach on the field for his children's sports teams but was also a guiding force in teaching them life skills. He was a Sunday School teacher at Cranberry Community United Presbyterian Church impacting others as well. He was a self-proclaimed world champion UNO player and enjoyed performing his repertoire of football coach impressions to anyone who would listen. Most will remember Dean for his passionate support of his Nittany Lions and Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dean leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife of 25 years Jennifer (Grobert), and their two children Anna and Ryan; brother Craig (Michelle), his nieces and nephews, Joe, Julia, Catie, and Matt; Christian (Marie) Coulson, Jeffrey (Abby) and their daughter Amelia Coulson; Chase, Bryce and Caden Grobert.
Friends and family will be received on Tuesday, July 1, 2025, from 3:00 to 5:00 P.M. and 6:00 to 8:00 P.M. at Boylan-Glenn-Kildoo Funeral Home & Cremation Services, Inc., 130 Wisconsin Avenue, Cranberry Township, PA 16066.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Wednesday July 2, 2025, at 11:00 A.M. at Cranberry Community Presbyterian Church, 2662 Rochester Rd, Cranberry Twp., PA 16066.
