Mr. Barrett R. Rochman

Dear Mr. Rochman:
I am pleased to enclose my proxy. Even though I am a nominal shareholder (100
shares) I too, have been concerned about the performance of Community Financial
Corp. The continued rewarding of directors and senior management in spite of
unacceptable performance levels is simply not acceptable.
I was in the banking business for a number of years taking an early retirement
as President of Norwest Bank in Iowa, now Wells Fargo. I spent about two years
with the FDIC in Chicago, division of liquidation, in charge of liquidating
agricultural loans of failed banks. I was recruited to the position of President
of the First Community Bank of West Frankfort. After making some adjustments in
personnel and procedures we sold the bank to the Dierberg group in St. Louis. I
subsequently was recruited and became President of The Olney Trust Bank in
Olney, Illinois. Upon accepting that position the stock value was increased from
$47.00 a share in 1990 to $240.00 a share in 1996. The stock has since split 10
for 1. I retired from the bank in March of 1996.
If I can be of any assistance in your quest for better performance of Community
Financial Corp., please let me know.
Sincerely,
/s/ John S. Zdychnec
