Family Members:

Devora Frieda "Debbie" Lieberman, our beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away peacefully at age 91 on June 5, 2022, in Holland, Ohio. Debbie was born in Detroit, Michigan to Charles and Lillian Apsel. Raised in a musical family, she took lessons privately and in school to learn the saxophone, which she continued to play into adulthood and performed in concerts. Debbie graduated from Central High School in Detroit where business coursework prepared her for a career path as a bookkeeper and office manager in the wholesale office supply industry. As a member of the B'nai B'rith organization, Debbie bowled in local leagues and travel tournaments for years as well as serving as treasurer for her league. After retiring at age 65, Debbie served as treasurer on the board of her senior living community. Her appreciation of the performing arts got her involved voluntarily with the Fox and Birmingham Theaters where she ushered and enjoyed productions. For leisuretime, she loved traveling and socializing with friends from poker and mahjong groups.

Debbie was preceded in death by her parents, Lillian and Charles Apsel; sister, Estelle Kaufman (the late Harry); and brother, Leonard Apsel. Debbie will be dearly missed by her daughter Peggy Ann Ziegler (Lieberman) and son Gary Robert Lieberman; grandchildren, Jason (Amy) Ziegler, Aaron (partner, Phu Pham) Ziegler, Dale (Stephanie) Ziegler, Mara (Nate) Hawkins; great-grandchildren, Jacob Ziegler, Morgan Ziegler, Milo Ziegler, Lila Ziegler, Lillian Hawkins and Maxine Hawkins.
