Presley Kay Deters

Presley Kay Deters went to be with the Lord on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at home, held close by her parents who cherished her. She was born on February 23, 2026, in Muskegon, Michigan, to Chad and Nichole (Jorissen) Deters. From the moment she arrived, Presley was the most beautiful baby, with a full head of gorgeous dark hair. She was eagerly awaited by her family and especially by her big brothers.

Born with Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa, Presley graced this world for only 16 days. Those days were filled with love and tender moments that her family will treasure forever. She was surrounded every moment by the fierce love and care of her parents and family, and in her short time here she showed just how meaningful and powerful a tiny life can be.

Her big brothers, Crew and Jayce, ages 3 and 1, adored her with a love that was pure and immediate. They cherished every chance to be near her, showering her with kisses and snuggles. Presley loved being held close by her mom and dad and resting peacefully in their arms. One of the things that brought her comfort was having her hair gently washed or her head softly rubbed.

Presley is survived by her loving parents, Chad and Nichole Deters; her big brothers, Crew and Jayce Deters; grandparents, John and Janet Deters and Gary and Anne Jorissen; great-grandparents, Jim and Joan Deters, Jean and Roger Jorissen, and Bob and Kay Dunn; aunts and uncles, Ashley (Matt) Lamphere, Kelli (Derek) VanBlargan, Bryce Jorissen, Logan Jorissen, and Kelsey Jorissen; and cousins Jordyn, Brynnley, Lincoln, and Jarett. She was preceded in death by her great-grandparents, Beulah and Ernest Norwood.

Presley’s time on earth was short, but the love she brought into this world will remain forever in the hearts of those who loved her. In her 16 days, she knew nothing but love and the arms of those who cherished her. Her family finds peace in knowing she is now whole and free from pain, safely in the arms of Jesus.
