Jill & Jonathon - We were enriched by knowing Dean. He always had a smile and an encouraging word that uplifted the Savior. What a wonderful man! Even though we sorrow, we don't sorrow as those that have no hope. Dean knew Jesus and is enjoying His presence completely - face-to-face!!
With Love, Kelland and Gail Lowry

Jill & Jonathan, Laura and I wish you Gods peace knowing Dean has finally made it. He has now heard God say, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Come into thy rest." Dean was an awesome friend, brother, camp cook and hunting partner. Dean, rest well in your cabin in the hills.
