Debra J. Sebring

November 20, 1954 - December 9, 2020

   Debra Jeanne (Kern) Sebring, 66, of Archbold, Ohio passed away on Wednesday, December 9, 2020 at St. Vincent's Mercy Medical Center, Toledo, Ohio.

   She was born on November 20, 1954 in Bowling Green, Ohio to William and Marjorie (Tyson) Kern.  She was previously married to Dale Sebring and they were divorced.

   Deb grew up in Deshler, Ohio, one of 6 children.  She was a graduate of Patrick Henry High School.  Shortly after high school she began working at FSI in Archbold, Ohio.  For over the past 44 years, she worked tirelessly at FSI to provide for her family.  She was a single mother and was proud to raise her two daughters on her own.  She extended this care to her grandchildren, which she adored.  Her family will remember her for her independent spirit, sometimes stubborn and hard-work ethic.  The Christmas season was her favorite and she looked forward to baking and distributing her "Goodie Plates" and having full family parties with lots of gifts for everyone.  She will forever be missed and cherished by her family.

   She is survived by her loving daughters, Annette (Jeremy) Williams, Stryker, Ohio; Alicia (Ryan) Hicks, Archbold, Ohio; her father, William Kern, Sr.; 5 grandchildren, Dillon (Brooke) Gansmiller; Kaitlynn Wilks; Joshua Smith; Lila Hicks; Corbin Hicks; 8 great grandchildren, Carter; Dru; Elliot; Brodie; Zaria; Ethan; Kaden; Rylan; brothers, William Kern, Jr.; James Kern; sisters, Rebecca Smith; Beverly Smith and many beloved nieces and nephews.

   She was preceded in death by her mother, Marjorie and brother, Robert Kern.

   Graveside services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Monday, December 14, 2020 at Woodlawn Cemetery, Deshler, Ohio.  Those attending will be asked to wear masks and practice social distancing.

   The family suggests memorials to a charity of the donor's choice.
