You have my deepest sympathy. Mr Deats drove for us @ Sale Auto Mall that's how I come to know him. He was a very sweet and loving man whom I truly enjoyed working with. He will truly be missed. My condolences go out to the family. God Bless You!

You are in our thoughts and prayers.
We met Russell a few years ago when
we needed someone to drive us to
Raleigh because of health issues.
We enjoyed hearing him share about
his children, grandchildren and
Megan!! He was a very special friend.
