Maurice Lamont Fiddermon

Maurice Lamont “Rico” Fiddermon was a member of the small, tightly knit communities of Temperanceville and Oak Hall on Virginia’s Eastern Shore. Public records and local reports identify him as a man in his early forties whose presence was known to neighbors across Accomack County. Though formal obituary notices or family-authored memorials were not located in the public record, contemporary local coverage refers to him by the name Maurice Lamont Fiddermon (also reported with the familiar nickname “Rico”), and places his home in Temperanceville.

Community sources show that Maurice’s life was rooted in this rural area of eastern Virginia, and that he was known locally — the kind of neighbor people see at community gatherings, at local businesses, or traveling Lankford Highway between towns. Those who lived on the Eastern Shore remember the neighborhood ties and small-town connections that shape daily life there: family visits, local friendships, and shared history across generations.

Public documentation about Maurice that is available focuses on the circumstances of his death rather than an extended account of personal achievements or family remembrances. Because no published funeral-home obituary or family notice matching his name and the exact date of death (December 6, 2021) was located, this remembrance focuses respectfully on the verifiable facts and on acknowledging Maurice as a real person whose life mattered to people in his community. His name appears in official and local news reports from December 2021 identifying him as a 43-year-old resident of Temperanceville; those reports show that he was part of the fabric of the Eastern Shore community.

Lacking a family-published tribute to quote or summarize, this brief life story is offered with restraint and respect. Maurice’s life — like every life — carried relationships, rhythms, and ordinary moments that mattered to people who knew him. For anyone seeking to honor him further, contacting local funeral homes, newspapers that serve Accomack County, or family members (where appropriate and respectful) may yield remembrances, photos, or details suitable for a fuller memorial. For now, this page holds his name and the acknowledgment that his life, and the loss felt by those who knew him, deserve dignity and remembrance.
