Charles “Chuck” Daniel, 79 of Petoskey, died March 7, 2019.
Chuck was born on June 9, 1939 in Petoskey, the son of Herbert and Katherine (Mayer) Daniel and graduated from St. Francis High School with the class of 1959.
On June 20, 1959, Chuck married the love of his life and the woman he was going to spend almost 60 years with, the former Joan Zyks and the two made their home in Petoskey. Chuck went to work as a Roofer, most notably with Hunts Roofing. While roofing, he and his brother Carl took their most notable coffee break, on top of the steeple at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church, one on each side of the cross. He later went to work at Northern Michigan Hospital, now McLaren Northern Michigan, where he worked in the X-Ray Dept for 24 years before formally retiring.
Chuck was the epitome of a hard worker, but he was a true gentle man and was always there to give a lending hand to those in need. He loved tending to his garden and was an avid hunter.

Mary Alice Riley, 80 of Petoskey, Michigan, passed away on April 1, 2023 surrounded by her family.
Daughter of Herbert and Katherine (Mayer) Daniel, Mary was born on April 6, 1942 in Petoskey. She grew up on her family’s farm in Petoskey and graduated from St. Francis High School in 1960. Mary attended St. Mary School of Technology in Grand Rapids, Michigan to become a registered radiology technician.
On June 9, 1962, she married Louis “Bud” Riley in Petoskey at the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church. They were best friends and were rarely apart during their 60 wonderful years together.
Following their wedding, Mary and Bud moved to Danvers, Massachusetts while Bud was stationed at Danvers Army Base. Mary began her career as a radiology technician at the Danvers Hospital during this time. They returned to Flint, Michigan in 1964 so Bud could attend barber school while Mary continued her career. They then moved to Traverse City for a few years before returning to their hometown in 1974 where Mary worked in radiology at Northern Michigan Hospital for over 40 years.
Mary loved to play cards. It was not uncommon for her to play a heated game of “Peanuts” until 3:00 AM with her family, especially her sisters. She also loved sewing, gardening, and tending to her flower beds. She adored her family, especially her grandchildren. She spent many hours in the yard and on the swing set with them when they were young, and never missed a sporting event during their school years.
Mary was a woman of deep faith that was devoted to her family and will be missed by many. In Bud’s words, “she was a sweetheart”.
Mary was a member of the St. Francis Xavier Church, volunteered at Brother Dan’s Food Pantry and as a 4-H Leader for many years.
She is survived by her husband Louis “Bud” Riley; her children Mark Riley of Portland, Oregon and Susan (Brian) Sanderson of Petoskey, Michigan; her grandchildren Steven (Danielle) Behan of New Hudson, Michigan and Taylor (Brandon) Carson of Petoskey; her great-granddaughter Kendall Behan; her siblings Magdalen Skiver, Edna (Craig) Shaw, and Norm (Emily) Daniel; her sisters-in-law Joan Daniel and Ruth Daniel; and many nieces and nephews.
Mary is preceded in death by her parents Herbert and Katherine Daniel; and her brothers Carl Daniel, Charles Daniel, and Tom Daniel.
Those wishing to make a charitable donation in Mary’s memory are asked to consider Brother Dan’s Food Pantry.
A memorial mass for Mary will be officiated by Father Greg McCallum on Thursday, April 6, 2023 at the St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church at 11:30 AM. A visitation will begin at 10:30 AM.
