We have very fond memories of Howard, he was a genuinely nice man. If it weren't for Howard we wouldn't have our home, he helped use through the buying process when he was selling his aunt's house. His family and the community have suffered a great loss. Our prayers to his entire family.

When I moved up here in 1993 I went to work for Howard Deatsch at Deatsch Insurance. He was what you would find in the dictionary under "True Gentleman". This man made time for anyone even if he did have a million things on his desk to accomplish. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

We offer sincere condolences to the Deatsch family. We met Howard through golf outings and thoroughly enjoyed his company as well as Virginia's at several group dinners during a golf trip to Mexico. Howard always had a smile and kind words to offer - a true gentleman. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Howard's family.

Our sincerest sympathy to the Deatsch family during this difficult time. Howard always took time to talk to us and was always so friendly whenever we saw him. We will miss him and his very kind and generous spirit.

Howard was the definition of "gentleman" and was truly one of the kindest souls I've ever had the honor to meet. To put up with Rob and his knucklehead friends (I admit to being one such knucklehead) required the patience of Jobe, which is a befitting descriptor for Howard. My love and heartfelt condolences to the Deatsch family during this difficult time. God bless.

I worked for Howard at his insurance agency for almost 9 years. He was one of kindest, most genuine and truly a good man. He was thought very highly of and will be missed by many. My thoughts and prayers to his family.
