    I am very sad to hear of Mr Creamers death,he was one of the nicest men and I will always remember how kind he always was. I picked vegges in his field for so many years. We would have some good stories to share each time I would come in to pay him. He and your mother were my friends, I will miss them very much. They loved you kids so much,I know where they are this day because I know they loved the Lord and they prayed you would all know the Lord and be with them one day in heaven. God Bless you. LOVE,Hilda Malone

    I remember the days of Theodore mowing the grass and farming with the radio on his tractor playing loudly. He was always out and about helping other with that tractor and loved it.
    The community will definitely miss him.

    R.I.P.

    Heartbroken yet thankful that he can rest now.
    Byrneville community will never be the same without him.
    He was one of the sweetest man I knew.

    I met Theodore in 1984 when I hired on at The Escambia county road prison.
    He was a senior officer then. He taught me a lot in those early days.
    We became good friends and were friends for 31 years. He was a wonderful person. I will miss him greatly.
    God bless you my friend.

    Mr. Creamer taught me how to deal with Inmates in a very respectful manner. He was always looking for the good in everyone. He always had a great sense of humor and was always in a good mood. He was an Old School Officer and never forgot the good ones he dealt with. I’m sure his family will miss him and the world up north won’t be the same with him not being around in person. He will though be in every ones’s thoughts with things he done/said. To the family, cherish all the memories he left behind and we will all be together again someday. Mike Amerson
