Deborah Treuhaft Blake, age 75, passed away peacefully at her home in Toledo, Ohio with her husband of 25 years, Ron Berente, by her side, on Saturday, April 22, 2023. She was born on March 19, 1948 in Toledo to the late James and Marian Blake.

Deborah attended McAuley and Bowsher High schools (Toledo), class of 1966. Deborah was a paralegal and an entrepreneur. She and her late husband, Phil Treuhaft, raised their daughter in Port Clinton (Catawba Island), Ohio where she had founded an upscale women’s boutique called “Deborah’s”. She was passionate about downtown revitalization and led many initiatives in town including the addition of trees lining the downtown streets. As a president and long-time member of the Port Clinton Women’s Club she raised funds and put a beautiful brick retaining wall along the lake on Perry Street. Deborah was the President of the Magruder Hospital Auxiliary and co-chaired many wonderful charity balls. She believed the best way to meet new people was to throw a party. She was a fierce entertainer and will always be remembered for her epic St. Patrick’s Day parties on Catawba Island. She was an avid snow and water skier and taught almost every kid in the neighborhood how to water ski. She was known for her exquisite taste in interior design and inspired many projects with her creative eye. She was also active in the Port Clinton DECA chapter where she employed students and mentored them in business practices.

After selling her successful business, Deborah moved back to Toledo and worked as a paralegal helping clients with Workers’ Compensation claims. Deborah enjoyed spending time with her siblings and cousins and dear friends especially while dining on Greek food. Deborah retired and moved to Florida with her husband, Ron Berente, and enjoyed living on the water and year-round sunshine. Deborah took advantage of her sunny location to take her grandchildren on many exciting adventures including Disneyland, Lego Land, Pirate Ships, to see Alligators in the Everglades and to see the dolphins jump the boat wake. Last summer, Deborah moved back to Ohio to be closer to her family and her grandchildren. She was a devoted mother to her only daughter, Gretchen (Treuhaft) Schmidt. Deborah loved fiercely and was a life-long friend to many through her generosity and open door.

She will be greatly missed by her husband, Ron Berente of Toledo; daughter, Gretchen (George) of Mason; grandchildren, Blake, Collin, Kyle, Ryan, Patrick Fleming; and step-children, Amy (Greg) Wagoner, Sherry (Craig) Crockett, Paul (Sandi) Berente; along with her sisters, Pam (Sam) Maccabee, Molly (Rocky) Geiser; brother, Michael Blake, loving nieces and nephews, cousins; and step-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her sister, Christine Boyle.

Son of Sue Miller Reger ’72 passed away

Mary Alice Hackenberg ’63 passed away

ary “Mickie” Alice (Hackenberg) Lewinski

Mary “Mickie” Lewinski, 78, passed away peacefully surrounded by family on December 7, 2022. Born March 4, 1944 in Toledo, OH to Clark and Marie Hackenberg. Mary attended McAuley High School all 4 years and was proud to be in the first full graduation class in 1963.

Mary went on to attend the Toledo Academy of Beauty where she earned her Cosmetology license. Mary enjoyed almost 50 years as a hairdresser, gained her lifelong nickname “Mickie” and even owned her own beauty salon, Hair Artistry, for almost 20 years. She truly enjoyed sharing her craft and mentoring young hairdressers in her salon. Her biggest influence has probably been on her granddaughter, Taylor, as she followed in her Nani’s footsteps and also become a hairstylist. Mary truly found her calling in this industry and made some of the best friends along the way.

Mary met the love of her life, Michael Lewinski, and they married on June 10, 1967. They shared a beautiful life together until Mike’s passing in 2017, one month shy of their 50th wedding anniversary. Together they had 2 daughters which then brought them 5 grandchildren to love and adore.

Mary was an amazing mom, but her grandchildren really lit up her world. Nothing gave her more joy than to play with them, cook for them or watch them at one of their many activities or games. Mary and Mike were often found in the stands cheering on their favorite players, even traveling to multiple games in a day. They rarely missed an opportunity to catch any of their grandchildren in action.

One of Mary’s favorite things to do was travel. Her and Mike loved the beach and often found their vacations near water. She also loved her yard and spent many hours creating and tending to her beautiful gardens; even creating a beautiful Ohio shaped garden. Always the green thumb, her love of plants extended indoors, as she had grown and taken care of numerous plants in her home over the years. The best time spent though, in Mary’s eyes, was right in the back yard in their beloved pool. Endless days swimming and playing with all of her kids and grandkids in the pool gave her great joy. Mary’s greatest legacy will be her family… some of the best memories they have happened at their house.

Mary is survived by her daughters, Kellie Pawlicki of Waterville, OH and Tracy (Bruce) Mucci of Raleigh, NC; grandchildren, Kahlie, Kourtnie and Kyle Pawlicki and Brandon (Kylie) Mucci and Taylor Mucci. She is also survived by her loving sister, Rita. Mary also leaves behind many friends that she thought of as family. And last but not least, she leaves behind her beloved dog, Rusty, by her side until her last breath. Mary was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Michael; her brothers, Robert and Bernie.

Friends and family may visit at Walter Funeral Home, 4653 Glendale Avenue, Toledo, OH on Saturday, December 10, 2022 from 11:00 a.m. until the start of the memorial service at 3:00 p.m. Memorials in Mary’s memory may be to Hospice of Northwest Ohio.

Daughter of Barbara Petty Cochrane ’69 passed away….

Rhonda Lynn Barker, 48, who was born on July 10, 1974 in Winter Garden, Florida went home to be with Jesus on March 16, 2023 in Leesburg, Florida.

Rhonda’s Mom (Barbara Petty Cochrane) and Dad (Ronald Martin Cochrane, Sr.) always lovingly called her their little “sugar booger.”  She attended school at Lovell Elementary in Apopka, Ocoee Elementary, Whitfield Academy, and graduated from Calvary Baptist Christian School.  During her time at school, she developed a love of sports and was on the volleyball, basketball, and softball teams for five years at Calvary.  She worked as a Chef/Cook for 20 years.  She planted beautiful flower gardens everywhere she lived, and she loved doing arts and crafts.

Her family is so thankful that God drew her to Jesus and saved her through her faith in Him.  She smiled so much and had such wonderful peace the last couple of months of her life.  Even though she knew her life here was coming to an end, she had a supernatural peace from God as she left us and moved on to Heaven.

A Celebration of Life will take place on April 1, 2023 at 11:00 am at Lake Eustis Christian Church located at 315 E. Orange Ave., Eustis, Florida.
