DEAN DIETRICH

Dear Lois,
It has been years since I've seen you and Dean yet I have very fond memories of him as my doctor and friend. I smile often when I drive past his office in SW and remember the time he asked me and Lynda to officiate with song and message at your church when you were in transition with leadership. I remember going over to your house and "anointing" him with good old Catholic oil of the sick one evening. I loved his humor and gentle manner. I am so sorry to learn of his...

To Dean's Family,
As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Dr. Dean was my sister-in-law's brother so knew him as a relative and also as a school mate at Auburn and Walla Walla. My thoughts reach out to the family he cherished. Godspeed.

Dear Loise
my thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. I was unable to attend the service as I had a bug and was staying home. I do want to tell you that I have many wonderful memorie of Dean from went I worked with him at United General Hospital. We shared laughs and worked together well. I remember when you worked with us as well. You take care. I'm glad for those early years when we all worked together closely.

In the hospital's delivery room, literally the first person I ever saw.
My thanks for 33 years of care Doc. You will be deeply missed.

Just learned of Dean's death. I'm so sorry. I'm sure he will be greatly missed by his family and friends. I have such fond memories of our Auburn Academy days when Dean and I were members of the class of 1957. Dean played leadership roles well, and excelled academically. I had fun competing with him in Professor Reed's science classes when our class standing resulted in a "better" chair. It has been nice to see him during subsequent class reunions and catch up with our lives. My...
