Joseph M. Deschak

I was very fortunate to meet Mr. Deschak when I was a kid through Boy Scouts where I became friends with Bob in old Troop 802. Mr. Deschak made it easy for young people to look up to him just by being kind and fair. Every time I saw him he always had a smile on his face and he always asked how I was doing, how my family was and how I was doing in school. He was a good man and he will be missed. Our sympathy and prayers go out to the entire Deschak family. Were truly sorry for you loss, Don, Lynn, Ashley and Jacob West

I knew Mr. Deschak when he was my principal at Deerfield Elem. 1963-1966. He was such a fine leader, both for the students and for the teachers. I was a young teacher and appreciated all of his support. My husband also taught one year at the school and felt Mr. Deschak was one of the finest principals he worked under. Our deepest sympathy to all of the famly.

I was one of Mr. Deschak"s problem children way back at Oakington Elementary now called Roy Williams back in 1974. It was not a good day in school unless i was in the principals office at least once daily. He wrote a letter home to my parrents one year asking them to not sent me to school in a dress as I was always causing trouble on the play ground. I served alot of after school detention and had numerous life talks in those days. My condolences go out to you and your family he was a wonderful man and will be remembered fondly by many.

I am very sorry to hear Mr. Deschak passed away. He has always treated my workers so nice. My father told me that when he went on his first date with my mother ( over 50 years ago), he stopped and asked Mr. Deschak for directions to her home and Mr. Deschak showed him the way! My deepest sympathy to his family.

My heart goes out to your whole family. I remember Mr. Deschak as a warm, fun-loving man, full of life. Fondly, Laura
