Detroit Handball mourns the loss of fellow player Cy DeMuelemeister

It's with fond sadness the handball community  bids farewell to Cy Demuelemeister. Cy died peacefully on March 26, 2023; age 95. Beloved husband of Mary Do (Denton); father of Katie (Jim Negro), Bob, Scott (Monica), and Laura Berger (Drew). Grandfather of 6. Predeceased by parents Marie and Cyriel, and siblings Joseph Trouillez, Robert, Margaret Herzog, and Walter. Cy was immediately and forever embraced by the Denton Clan: KC Doelle, Bob, Honey, Phil (Nancy), Mike (Magoo), Pat (Sis), and Coco Taylor (Walter Woo), and numerous loving nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Being with family and being active was most important to Cy and he and Mary Do instilled these passions in their children. An Army veteran after graduation from the University of Detroit, Cy was the consummate salesman. An incredible athlete, he won National, State, and Local handball tournaments, loved skiing, and was a longtime golfer at Stonycroft Hills Golf Club.
