Not sure what to say?

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Deater's passing. I loved helping him and his wife when they came to the bank. They were my favorite customers. He will be missed.

I worked with Tommy at Eastalco. One of the nicest, pleasant, and thoughtful people I worked with.
My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Dear Tommy and Roberta, no matter how old you get you will always be "little Tommy". We would like to send our sympathy for your loss of both your mom and dad. They both are now at peace. We are sending a donation to the 4H center in their memory. Take care and we are saying prayers for you both. With love Peg and Huff.

Sincere sympathy in the loss of your loved one. Our prayers are with you during this difficult time. We met at the fair while working the FCPS booth. The Great Frederick Fair will not be the same without him, as he made many friends during his tenure. He may be gone but never forgotten.

Tommy, so very sorry to learn that your Dad has passed. He and your mom were two of the nicest people on this earth. I grew up with your dad and we were all schoolmates. They are together once more in peace and happiness. They will watch over you together now.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Thank you Mr. Deater for lots of childhood memories including Santa Claus and the Frederick Fair! You will be missed.

We're sorry to hear about your loss. We worked with Tommy at The Great Frederick Fair in the Household Building. We remember when he gave us some Bobblehead pieces, especially the Santa Claus. I know he will be missed by those who knew him. You have our deepest sympathy.

We were the neighbors across the Fieldstone Drive from you many years ago. Tommy had the biggest heart of anyone I ever met. Even after we moved to the other side of Cloverhill he would come over ever Christmas and my daughters were thrilled that Santa visited them at their house. To 'Little' Tommy - my heart breaks for you that you have lost both parents and in such an awful time. Your parents were the perfect example of good people. They will be very much missed.

My condolences to Tommy and Roberta. God Bless.
