Seth R. Deming, age 29, of Leroy, passed away suddenly, and unexpectedly, Saturday, March 15, 2025. He was born May 4, 1995 in Cleveland, to Susan Lewis and James Deming.

Where do you start to memorialize someone so well loved? Seth was a graduate of Perry High School and University of Northwestern Ohio, graduating with an Associates Degree in Auto Technology. After college, Seth found his true passion in masonry as a brick layer. In August of 2024, Seth began a new career with Avery Dennison in Mentor, which he really enjoyed. In his free time, Seth enjoyed dirt bikes, four wheelers, playing with his dogs, and playing darts, poker and pool. He loved the outdoors, bon fires, and classic country music like Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams, Jr., and Johnny Cash. He loved spending time with his family, especially his brothers, and being Uncle “Wonkey Donkey” to Elliott and April.

He is survived by his mother, Susan (Christopher) Lewis; father, James Deming; brothers, Marcus (Ashley) Deming, Caleb Deming; several step brothers and sisters; nephew, Elliott and niece, April Deming; grandfather, Charles Deming; many aunts, uncles, cousins, extended family and friends; Sheba and Lucy, his four legged companions. Seth was preceded in death by grandparents, Albert and Doris Garland, and grandmother, Phyllis Deming; and cousin Karie Bair.

Guestbook

  1. So sorry Suzie prayers and hugs to you and the family. My heart goes out to all of you.Love you Elaine

  2. Oh, Sue! I cannot possibly fathom your pain. I was teaching in Nebraska at the time that Cale and Jackson’s dad died. I turned to our guidance counselor, who had lost a son to suicide. I cried, “How do I do it? How do you go on?” He gave me the best advice I’ve ever received. He said, “You take a segment of time–it might only be a minute or two, and all you have to do is get through that. Focus on just getting through that. Don’t think about an hour later or tomorrow, or whatever–just the amount of time you can handle right then.” It got me through a lot. It got me through walking up that long church aisle holding two little boys’ hands–and so many more heart-wrenching moments. Your pain will never “get better”, as people like to say. It doesn’t ever go away. But it does get different. And you will be able to get through longer periods of time. You will someday laugh more than cry when you talk of him. And please do talk of him-keep his name on your lips. My memories of Seth playing baseball with Cale brings a smile to my face.
    Love,
    Tracy Burdyshaw and family
    p.s. And please ignore anyone that tells you to “be strong”. You DO NOT have to be strong whatsoever. You have to survive this somehow. /that’s it.

      • Sue. There are no words to express my deepest sympathy to you and your family at this time. I know you have strong faith and you know where Seth is. While I never met Seth, I feel your pain. Huge hugs and prayers for peace of heart and mind as you take this day by day. He was so loved, and that is what counts the most. To have lived with that love in his life. I’m sorry.

  3. My heart goes out to you and your family. Praying that God’s grace and the support of family and friends give you strength and comfort.
    Love, Kathy Welch

  4. Some souls shine so brightly that even a short time with them is a gift. I am blessed to have known you and loved you, even if it wasn’t long enough. Thank you for your friendship, the laughter, and the memories. Life will never be the same without you. Rest in peace, Sethy Poo.

  5. I am so sorry for both of your families loss Sue and Jim. Love to both your families we have know you all for several years and I cannot imagine the loss that you must be feeling. Prayers sent for both families.
