Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?





I just ran across this and it upsets me so much that I didn't know, so I could be there to show my respects and bid my great friend goodbye. Dean was a very close friend of mine, and I cut his hair for years until he was in Honea Path awhile and couldn't make the trip anymore. I talked to him 2-3 times after Jane passed and then his phone was disconnected when I tried to reach him. I'm very sorry for your family's loss. I loved Dean to death. He was always a gentleman and like a big brother to me. I'd like to know what happened to him, if one of you would let me know. God Bless you all!
