Dorothy L. Deming

Dorothy Deming, 83, of Ocala, Florida, formerly of Unionville and Pigeon,
passed away on Monday June 7, 2021 in Ocala surrounded by the love of her family.

Dottie was born March 6, 1938 in Romulus to the late Howard Kenneth and Dorothy Elizabeth Provey.

Dottie was a kind hearted determined woman; loving mother and grandmother who spoiled her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was sweet with an extra side of spunk. She was an awesome cook, loved dancing, gardening and the outdoors, as well as traveling, and watching sunsets. She had a passion for serving others and worked in the restaurant industry for over 30 years as a Chef/Kitchen Manager. She worked in several restaurants all over the thumb of Michigan throughout her career. However, her cooking career was cut short due to an illness that left her wheelchair bound. She went on to be a classroom "Grandmother" in Pigeon, hugging as many little ones as she could. There was never any dust under her wheels. Being with her children and grandchildren were the highlight of her day.

She is survived by her children Deborah (Keith) Strieter of Unionville, Sherry (Andy Camacho) Petrowski of Caseville, Michelle (Kevin Sturm) Proper of Sebewaing and Jamie (Missy) Katshor of Pigeon; step-children April (Bruce) Kingsbury of Georgia, Steve (Linda) Deming, Jimmy Deming and Stacy Deming all of Florida; her partner Bob Richards of Florida; and many grandchildren, great grandchildren and great great-grandchildren.
Dottie is preceded in death by her parents; her brother Buster and sister Jeanie, her daughter, Lisa Archibald, step-sons Jason Deming and Mike Katshor, son-in-law David Hahn and grandson Nathan Hahn, and great-grandson Cody Austin.

A visitation will be 11:00am to 2:00pm on Saturday, July 3rd at Champagne Funeral Chapel in Pigeon.
