Dennis Eugene “Flea” Fraley, 69, of Tiffin, died at 3:16 p.m. Saturday, January 15, 2022, peacefully with his family by his side at the Cleveland Clinic.  He was born July 8, 1952, in Tiffin to Eugene E. and Marjorie J. (Lehnert) Fraley.  He married his soul mate and wife of 43 years, Charlotte “Suzi” Walker on November 18, 1978, and she survives.

He was the proud father of two daughters, Denise (Brad) Lewis of Bellevue, and Kati (Todd) Christner, of Mt. Cory; proud papa to four grandchildren, Arianna Garcia, Chayse Cross, Kami Christner, and Landen Lewis; a sister, Sharon (Gary) Hartman of Tiffin.

Dennis was a 1970 Tiffin Columbian High School graduate.  He retired from sales in various areas; he had managed the Eagles Lodge and sold insurance for Roger Smith Agency.  He was a lifetime member of Amvets and the Eagles.
