1929 - 2010
Mr. Duane A. Deal, 80, died Sunday, January 17, 2010 at Spectrum Health United Memorial Long Term Care in Greenville. He was born September 13, 1929 in Edmore, the son of Frank and Edith (Sharkey) Deal. His parents moved the family to Greenville shortly thereafter, where Duane resided for the rest of his life. He served his country in the United States Army and was a proud member of the American Legion Ray I. Booth Post 101 in Greenville. He was a machinist at Federal Mogul for 44 years prior to his retirement. He was an avid outdoorsman, and especially loved to fish at Tek-a-Nink Lake. Duane was preceded in death by his parents; his brothers, Marv, Lawrence, Clinton, and Ted Deal; and his sisters, Ida Smith, Blanche Rahn, Dora Patterson, and Maggie Hunter. He is survived by his wife of 33 years, Mary; his children, Mark Deal of Pinckney, MI and Tami Deal of Colorado; and many nieces and nephews. In accordance with his wishes, cremation will take place and no formal services will be held.

Sorry to hear Duane will no longer be bringing a bucket of fish for his nephew to clean just because he had cleaned enough. I'm sure he will be missed by many. I have alot of funny memories of uncle Duane.

My prayers go out to you in this time of sadness. This is a time of rememberance for me, as my Dad, Ken Wheeler, worked with Duane at Federal. Those were times of many stories I heard from Dad, most often very funny.
May God be with you at this time, and know you can lean on him for comfort.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. I do remember that for many years no body could run a broach better than Duane. His dance he did while running the machine was the talk of the whole shop. He will be sadly missed by one and all.
