Obituary of James E. Deyo
James E. Deyo, 83, passed away on June 20, 2022. He was born on July 19,1938, to the late Mary T. and Walter C. Deyo in Yonkers, New York. James was preceded in death by his five siblings: Walter, Chester, William, Richard Deyo and Norrine (Deyo) Dore. Mr. Deyo retired as a U.S. Navy Chief after 20 years of proud service. He later retired from 20 years of Civil Service at NAS Oceana. Jim was an avid fan of US History, working on puzzles, obscure YouTube videos, and really bad "dad jokes". He loved his family - near and far and made friends all along the way. He is survived by his loving wife of 58 years, Joann M. (DiMartino) Deyo; children, Charlene Thibert (David), Howard Wetherbee (Cheryl), Michael Wetherbee (Diana), Susan Dawson (Dan), Kathleen Deyo (Megan) and Mary Robinson (Charles). While Jim was preceded in death by one grandson (David), he leaves behind fifteen grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren. Whether plans went well or completely off course - he would always say that we were "making memories". A visitation for James will be held Tuesday, July 5, 2022 from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM at St Nicholas Catholic Church, 712 Little Neck Rd, Virginia Beach, Virginia 23452.
