NORTHPORT – Barbara Ann Zeits, 74, of Northport, passed away
Monday, June 24, 2019 at home surrounded by her loving family.
Barbara was born April 8, 1945 in the dining room of the Dalzell
home in Northport. She was the daughter

On Jan 6, 1965 at St. Mary’s Church of Lake Leelanau; officiated by Fr.
Frederick Voss, she married Arnold “Arnie” W. Zeits who preceded her in death
on April 29, 2019.
Barb loved watching and feeding the birds and deer. She was always outside doing yardwork; Barb
kept her yard picture perfect, even using a shop vac to clean up helicopter
seeds. In the winter she could be seen
snow blowing her entire yard. Barb would
spend time and effort at the cemetery keeping the Dalzell family plots in
perfect shape.
She loved cross word puzzles, crocheting and cooked from scratch
from what ever meal that popped into her mind.
Barb took love and pride in taking care of her husband of 54 years,
Arnie.
Barb is survived by her siblings, Robert (Diana H.) Dalzell,
Geneva (Ken) Graham, Regina “Toot” M. Denoyer, Maxine (Charles) Davis; her
in-laws, Hugh (Jean) Zeits, Charles (Jackie) Zeits and many loving nieces and
nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband Arnie, her parents and a
brother, William Dalzell.
Cremation has taken place, burial in Leelanau Township Cemetery
will be announced at a later date.
