Priscilla Ann Deller

Priscilla Ann Deller, age 77, of Harrisville, Michigan, passed away peacefully on October 12, 2026, in Alpena.

Born on February 23, 1949, in Pontiac, Michigan, Priscilla was the daughter of Harold Lovelace and Harriet (Teeple) Schrade. She spent her early childhood in Pontiac until the age of seven, after which she moved to Mikado, Michigan, where she was raised. She graduated from Oscoda High School.

On July 8, 1967, Priscilla married the love of her life, Ronnie Deller, in a ceremony in Lincoln, Michigan. Together, they built a wonderful life, a deep partnership, and a large, loving family over nearly six decades.

Priscilla worked in a variety of roles throughout her life, most recently serving as a Food Service Manager for two YMCA camps. However, her most enduring and cherished roles were those of devoted mother, grandmother, and friend. She also gave generously of her time as a volunteer for the Lott Baptist Church Food Pantry and enjoyed caring for her neighbors, friends, and family.

A woman of many talents and passions, Priscilla found joy in gardening, baking, sewing, home decorating, photography, and traveling. Above all, she loved spoiling her grandchildren and making every moment with them special.

Priscilla is survived by her devoted husband, Ronnie Deller; her children, Jeffery Deller (Heather), Amy Deller-Antieau (Lyle), Kyle Deller (Rebecca), Thomas Deller (Heidi), David Deller (Tyrah), and Stephen Deller (Margaret); her cherished grandchildren, Reese, Ella, Andrew, Lyle III, Rachel, Keegan, Gabrielle (Jared), Madison (Edward), Sidney, Dakota, Jacob, Alice, Dexter, Griffin, Grace, Gavin, Grady, and Gwendolyn; and her precious great-grandchildren, Emry, Merritt, and Darcy. She is also survived by her siblings, Beverly Travis, Glen Lovelace, Daniel Lovelace, Chris Lovelace, Linda Dickens, and Leslie Schrade, along with many well-loved cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Harriet Schrade; her father, Harold Lovelace; her stepfather, Donald Schrade; and her sister, Donna Smith.

Priscilla's warmth, strength, and boundless love will live on in our hearts forever.
