Very sorry to hear of Mr. Deal's passing. I went to school (VPI) with Wayne and played basketball with him often. In recent years I would stop by Mr. Deal's fruit stand in Sperryville, buy a few apples, and chat with him on the way to an afternoon of fishing. My condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Deal.
Sincerely,
Scott Campbell

I'm so sorry for your loss, just keep your chin up and know that he will now be an angel. I remember Mr Deal(Apple guy) when I was little and every once and a while my granddaddy( Cleveland Menefee) would get something from him and it was so much better than when it was bought out of store. Your family is our thoughts and prayers.
What you meant to me, Mr. Deal.
No matter the distance in miles or lapse in time, you always greeted me with a smile and welcomed me as part of the family.
You were a people person and always had an interesting story to share. I will miss hearing about your experiences in the military, entrepreneurship, fishing, and of the people you met along the way.
My fondest memory will always be the day you took me trout fishing. Although I did not catch a fish, it warmed my heart to spend that special time with you.
I will miss you.
To all of the Deal family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you all.
Love,
Carol Zadnik
