Tracy, Dan and Colleen, your dad was a special man. I'm very sorry for your loss. Try to remember all the good times. I can still see him in the dugout, walking the sidelines or courtside. When we got older he was our biggest fan. Rest in peace Mr. Bell.

To all the Bell Family,
I was sad to hear about Mr. Bell's passing. He was such a great guy, I will always remember that smile. You're all in my prayers right now.

I lived down the street from DeDe on Emerald Ave when I was very young. We went to St. Gabe's grammar school together, although DeDe was in "the other room". We last saw each other at our 50th grammar school reunion. He was always just a nice guy! DeDe and his family are in our prayers.

What a wonderful person he was. He always had a kind word to say about my dad, I'll miss those stories.... Rest in peace DeDe..
May the road rise to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
The rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
My throughts and prayers go out to all of you.
