Robert Martin Deel, beloved father and grandfather, passed away on Friday April, 8th, 2022 in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. He was born on December 15, 1954 in Denver, Colorado to the late Jack and Joan (Konnerup) Deel.
Rob attended Western Hills Elementary, John Dewey Junior High and then graduated from Mapleton High school in 1972. He worked a few jobs to start, with his main career being with Denver Public Schools until he retired.
Family and friends were extremely important to Rob. He enjoyed backyard barbecues and holiday gatherings. He also loved riding his Harley any chance that he could. And the mountains have always been home-away-from-home for him, as he has always had a love for nature.
Rob is survived by his loving children, Robbie Lee Coleman, Jesse Marie Gonzales, Michael Deel and his step-daughter, Kristy Bennet; his precious grandchildren, Allister, Reacher, Atticus and the memory of Renner; his siblings, Thomas Deel and Debra Borchardt; as well as many nieces, nephews and friends. In addition to his parents, Rob was preceded in death by his grandson, Renner Jack Coleman.
A celebration of life will take place Friday, April 22, 2022 at 1pm at Olinger Highland Mortuary, 10201 Grant Street, Thornton, CO 80229.
