Deater Family, It is with a very heavy heart that I send my most sincere condolences at the loss of Morrie. I worked with him in the early eighties, and subsequently for him until his retirement. My family and I have been friends ever since. We will fondly and forever remember his work ethic and firm belief in what ever he represented, his pride in and kind words regarding all of his family, his warm and personal interests in our family whenever we visited, and the tokens of his talents that we now will cherish as fond memories of his smile. I am glad to have visited and talked with him in these last few weeks as it will lend to longer memories of him. Our family will keep yours, and his memories in our prayers. Respectfully, Ray L. Wills and Family

To the Deater family ~ I know you are all proud of what your husband~father~grandfather~ stood for. I was blessed to be his neighbor for the past 8+ years. He was like the father I never had, always there to help with the lawn, snow removal, broken things around the house....etc. My family and I will always be greatful for everything he did for us. He is a legend ~ and will always be in our thoughts and prayers......love and peace to all....God Bless......

I'm so sorry to hear of Morrie's passing. He was such a dear man, and we enjoyed working with him at the Lakeshore Museum Center. He will definitely be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your loss. Morrie was my teacher in the arts of acrylic. He was a good and patient teacher, and we had a lot of fun together. Two people could not be as different as morrie and I were, and I'm sure he shook his head in puzzlement more than once at me. I will miss him. Laura Sheehy
