"Uncle" Deak will be sorely missed. I loved going to his house with my parents when I was a little girl. I just thought that all those poodles he and "Aunt" Beth had were the best! Whenever I came to Wichita to visit my parents I would always look forward to seeing him at church. I have been praying for all of the family during this difficult time. I know he is with our Lord and I take great comfort in that.

I worked with Deak at Dillon's #16. He was the best delivery man ever...he spoiled us by how well he took care of us. Beyond that, during this time I got to know Deak well. I remember sharing many conversations with him that were about more than work. His dedication towards helping others was truly inspiring. He will truly be missed. My condolences and prayers go out to his family.

My name is John Morgan. Although I did not know Deak, I know his son Dennis from Greeley. I am sorry to hear of his loss. It is the Bibles assurance that those in the memorial tombs will come back to life here on earth in a paradise state that God originally intended with Adam and Eve. At that time, death will be a thing of the past and families will be reunited and truly live life to the fullest right here on earth doing the things we have always yearned to do. Please accept our condolences and look forward to the time when Dennis and his father will climb the mountains, deep sea dive and live forever as Our Father intended.
