"He touched so many with his big heart and kind words," his wife, Jill DeBlock said in a statement. "I know how much he loved us. He didn't even need to tell us, he showed us every second he could."
At about 9:45 a.m., Robert DeBlock of South Lyon was driving in Ann Arbor Township from westbound M-14 to southbound US-23 when he lost control of his vehicle and left the travel lane. The vehicle flipped over, and DeBlock was ejected from the car through the sunroof. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Speed was a factor. He was the only person in the vehicle and was not wearing a seatbelt.

In Michigan, a claim can be filed by certain family members, but there are strict requirements and deadlines that must be met. It is crucial to speak with a Michigan personal injury attorney to get necessary information and advice.
