Mable Deane Obituary

Mable Luella Deane, 75, of Three Forks, passed away on Thursday August 21, 2025.

She was born November 2, 1949, to Ralph and Margaret Page and grew up in Three Forks as the youngest of five children. After graduating from Mount Ellis Academy in 1968, she studied business at Eastern Wyoming College.

Mable built a long career in the trucking industry, co-owning Mid Montana Trucking and later founding R.E. Deane Trucking with her husband, Roland. In the 1990s, the couple returned to Three Forks, where Mable established Mable's Tax Service and later opened the town's first laundromat in years, both of which became fixtures in the community.

She is survived by her husband, Roland E. Deane; her son, Richard (Lisa Montgomery) of Mesa, AZ; and her grandsons, Alex Madden-Page of Mesa and Christopher Montgomery of Flagstaff, AZ.

Mable will be remembered for her entrepreneurial spirit, dedication to family, and love for her community.

A memorial service will be held graveside at Fairview Cemetery in Three Forks, Montana on Friday September 5, 2025 at 1pm. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to www.sew4service.org or a charity dear to you
