Debra Kay Neinas' Obituary
Debra Kay (Beckman) Neinas, age 66, passed away peacefully on Sunday, April 28, 2024. Deb was born in Muskegon, MI on March 5, 1958, to Floyd and Rose (Kraus) Beckman. She was born into a large, and loving family. Deb graduated from Reeth-Puffer High School in 1976, where she met the love of her life Steven Neinas. She worked at Transnation Title Company for (a gazillion years) where she formed many wonderful long-lasting friendships. Deb was one of a kind, touching the lives of whoever got the pleasure of knowing her. She loved her family unconditionally, especially her 7 grandchildren. Deb had a sweet tooth and it showed in her baking of many delicious, sweet treats. When she wasn’t baking or cooking, she could be found outdoors, doing something active such as bike riding, hiking or pulling pesky weeds. Deb hated the sight of a weed. She found joy in the chaos of entertaining large crowds to the simple things like water (while singing to) her flowers. Deb’s smile and laugh were contagious and will be truly missed. Deb is survived by her husband of 48 years, Steve Neinas; 3 beautiful daughters Stephanie (Bill) Dahlquist, Sara (Travis) Young, and Ashley Wierengo; 7 precious grandchildren, Lauren, Tommy, Prudence, Carter, Oskar, Allie, and Hollis. Deb is preceded in death by her parents (Floyd and Rose Beckman), Mother-in-Law (Beverly Frank), and siblings (Jean Morris, Jim Beckman, Mick Beckman, and Rosemary Lambert). A Celebration of Deb’s short life will be on Friday, May 10, 2024 at The Lakehouse Waterfront Grille from 5:30-9pm. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to an Education Fund for her grandchildren c/o Steve Neinas.
