Obituary
Deanna Marczak, born February 8,
1960 passed away suddenly on June 19, 2024 in Brandon, FL, leaving behind a
legacy of love, generosity, and cherished memories.
Deanna was the first born to
Nancy and William “Bill” Holt, and the eldest of eight (8) children: Debra
Drake, Darin Holt, Danny Holt, David Holt (preceded in death), Damion Holt,
Dana Holt, and Denae Holt. At the time of her passing, Deanna was the devoted
wife to Andrew Marczak, Sr. her husband of over forty (40) years;
the loving mother and step-mother to their children: Jennifer Marczak, James
Marczak, Melissa Reidel, and Andrew Marczak, Jr.; and the adoring grandmother
to their grandchildren: Briston Leass, Darrian Leass, Carter Reidel, Dawson
Reidel, Austin Marczak, Jordan Marczak, Kaia Marczak, Braedon Marczak, and
Conquest Marczak.
Despite her untimely departure,
Deanna’s love for life and her appreciation for family (especially her
grandchildren) with whom she focused on creating everlasting memories, was
always abundantly clear. As a long-time Disney enthusiast, she took great pride
in her career with the organization, and her continued passion and excitement
for all things Disney continued well beyond her retirement from the DRC in
2013.
An avid Christmas enthusiast,
Deanna enjoyed decorating for the holidays and watching Hallmark Christmas
movies all year round. However, her happiness was most abundant when partaking
in holiday activities with her family and witnessing the excitement of
Christmas through the eyes of her grandchildren.
Deanna will be profoundly missed
by those who were fortunate enough to have known her. Her unwavering love and
dedication to her family and friends, even in difficult times, was an example
and inspiration to all. May Deanna rest in eternal peace and forever be in the
loving company of her beloved father, mother, and brother David all of whom she
has missed dearly.
In lieu of a formal funeral
service, the family intends to hold a Celebration
of Life to honor Deanna's memory in August.
