Read MoreI was so sorry to hear of Uncle Boyd's passing; I so enjoyed visiting with him when he came to visit his Iowa family. I felt I had gained a piece of the Dewey family back again that I had lost when his sister, my mother, had passed away so many years before. He was such a kind gentle man and reminded me so much of mom.
He will be missed.

It was my privilege to work for Boyd Dewey at Boston University during the late 1970's. He was such a wonderful mentor, and so much of what I learned from him still serves me well in work and in life. I will always remember him with warmth and gratitude.

How proud Boyd was standing at the alter marrying my Aunt Eleanor not that many years ago. The smiles they both had for each other, having found each other once again after literally a lifetime apart, was the stuff of story books. I'm sorry I could not have spent more time with him but forever thankful he passed through all our lifes here on the west coast.
Our sorrow for his east coast family and thanks for letting a little piece of him grace us!

Boyd was by far the most worldly man I have ever met. I feel very fortunate that my family and I got to know him and we are truly sorry for your loss.

Boyd was like a grandfather to me and I'm so grateful that he and Grandma Eleanor were able to spend several years together happily married. I miss them both so much and am so sad that I won't be able to play cards with them again. I will cherish the moments I spent with Boyd, and I am so thankful for the love and support he provided to Grandma Eleanor and the rest of her family.
Rest in peace Boyd
Love
