David Earl Deason
David Earl Deason,
59, of Dallas, Texas, died Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2022, in Medical City Hospital, Dallas, Texas. He was born Aug. 20, 1963, in Rogers, to Darwin A. Deason and Bonnie Hardy Deason.
He graduated from Rogers High School, Class of 1981, and attended the University of Arkansas. He moved to Dallas in 1988. There he acquired a position with one of his father’s companies, Precept Business Products, where he met the love of his life, Jill Neely.
He and Jill were married Sept. 21, 1996, in Dallas. This marriage later blossomed into a family with five children.
He was with Deason Capital Services when his failing health forced him into 10 years of hospital stays and medical procedures which he endured with grace. His family and his many friends from childhood and Dallas, as well as his love of music, helped him find enjoyment in his physically challenged state. He loved staying in touch with his many friends and family via text. His wonderful sense-of humor and quick wit entertained all.
One of his favorite things to brag about was the fact that he was chosen “Mr. Tiny Tot of Pea Ridge, 1969.”
Survivors are his wife, Jill; children, Madison, Hannah, Emily, Caleb and Aidan; mother, Bonnie Deason of Rogers; father, Darwin and wife, Kimberly of Dallas; brother, Doug (Jacki); sister, Sterling Deason O’Donnell (Jody); nephews, Preston Deason and Drake O’Donnell; nieces, Regan Deason and Reese O’Donnell; and many, many friends.
He was laid to rest in the Deason Family estate at Hillcrest Memorial Park. Funeral services were private.
The family wishes to thank the doctors, nurses and therapists who worked diligently to care for him during his years of medical needs. In lieu of flowers, consider making a donation to the SM Wright Foundation secure.paperlesstrans.com.
