Anthony Ray Deese
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Anthony Ray Deese, a beloved husband, father, and friend. Tony left us on March 9, 2025.
Tony was born on August 19,1952 in Winston-Salem. He moved to Myrtle Beach where he met and married the love of his life, Anne Ball-Deese, on November 26,1993. Together for 31 years, they traveled and shared countless cherished memories.
Tony was preceded in death by his parents Ray Baxter Deese, Lois West Deese and his son Christopher Deese. He is survived by his daughter Gretta Marie Deese Pack (Rockey) and their children Karson, Madden and Carter. He is also survived by his sister Kathryn Deese Rollins and her children Stephanie (Chuck) and Sallie (Bill) and Aunt Betty West.
Tony retired as an Incident Responder for the SC Department of Transportation.
Outside of work, Tony had a passion for the beach and water, often spending his free time at the pool, the beach, kayaking, camping and traveling. Tony was the real Santa Clause! He spread his love to the children of Garrett, Lambs Elementary, MUSC, Low Country Harley-Davidson and individuals along the way.
Tony was a man of great character, known for his generosity, compassion, and sense of humor. He touched the lives of many with his warm smile and kind heart. His legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to MUSC, Agape Hospice, Walmart Pharmacy Rivers Ave and friends and neighbors for their compassionate care and support during this difficult time and always.
