Deana was born on April 6, 1966 in Bismarck, ND. She attended

junior high where she participated in basketball, volleyball, track,

cheerleading and student council. While in high school she

continued participating in cheerleading and student council.

These junior high and high school activities prepared her for

being a leader in her life’s pursuits. Deana graduated from

Bismarck High School in 1984 and then from Bismarck State

University with a AAS degree. Her early employment included

working 12 years at the Eye Clinic of North Dakota as the Office

Manager followed by 15 years at St Alexius Heart and Lung

Clinic as “CPC” Business Office Manager; 2 years at Warford

Orthodontist and was currently employed at Millennium

Physicians Group as Coding Education Supervisor in Florida.

Deana married Frank Mack on January 21, 2004. They lived in

Bismarck before moving to Florida in 2019.

Deana was devoted to her two sweet sons. From the moment they

were born, they became her focus, her life. She never missed a

sporting event or any activity they participated in. A large plaque

in her home was a reminder to her loved ones .. . “I love you to the

moon and back!” Frequent messages to her sons and husband

included a song from her favorite artist, Rod Stewart – “Have I

Told You Lately That I Love You.” She also lived by the quote

by Mick Jagger, “I don’t look at the clouds of tomorrow through

the sunshine of today.”

Deana and Frank loved to travel and took Sam and Jack on many

trips including Disney World, the Ruins of Mexico, coast of

California, Washington DC, Yellowstone and more. Deana loved

the Missouri River and it’s sandbars in Bismarck. She loved any

beach in Florida, especially Fort Myers Beach and sitting in her

Bahama beach chair watching the sunset for the last l\vo years.

Her mother said, “She was the light of my life .. .I owe her a debt

of gratitude just for being my beautiful daughter!” Many are

blessed to have had Deana in their lives.

Deana is survived by her loving husband Frank Mack, Ft Myers,

FL; her sons Sam Markle and wife Erica (Martin) Markle; Jack

Markle all from Fargo, ND; sister Jolene (Shannon) Johnson of

Bismarck, ND; brother Vernon (Rachael) Newman of Lake Park,

MN; mother, Janice Pierce and stepfather Les Pierce of Bismarck

ND and four nephews and one niece. She continued to remain

close to her “fellow” cheerleaders Faune, Michelle, Cheryl, and

JoAnn. Deana was preceded in death by her grandparents.
