LaDonna Hill Obituary
LIMA -- LaDonna Hill, 96 of Lima, passed away on Thursday, May 15, 2025, at Lima Convalescent Home. She was born on March 12, 1929, in Lafayette to the late Orel and Rosa {Frazier} Sellers.
On May 27, 1950, she married Jack Hill Jr., who preceded her in death in 2019. LaDonna's goal in life was to buy a house and make it a home.

She enjoyed playing pinochle, traveling, and of course baking her famous pecan pies.
She is survived by her daughters, Leslie (Nick) Querry-Huber and Lisa (Bruce) Fried; grandsons, Scott (Jacki) Querry and Michael (April) Querry; and great-grandchildren: Briana, Kamryn, Kamiyah, Emma, and Lawson.
In addition to her parents and husband Jack, she was preceded in death by her son, Jack Edward Hill; and siblings: Carl Sellers, Dorothy Redinbo, Joe Sellers, Chloe Warner, and Helen Stanz.
Her family will receive friends on Sunday, May 18, 2025, from 2-4 p.m. at Chamberlain-Huckeriede Funeral Home, Lima. The funeral service will begin at 10 a.m. on Monday, May 19, 2025, at the funeral home. Rev. Wanda Werking will officiate. Entombment will follow at Woodlawn Cemetery, Lima.

So sorry to hear LaDonna has passed. You will hear "but she lived a long life." Yes, you know that but how does that make it any easier? It doesn't. I rely on memories, the sound of her voice and what a wonderful mom she was. Today she would be 103. Praying for all of you
