I am alive and living the most joyous and fulfilling life today while holding on to my faith because of my "god father" as I affectionately called him for years with his permission!! We were extremely close. He was my teacher/mentor/father figure/friend and guide! He believed in me when no one else did. Supported me from afar even as I entered into civilian ministry and then finally as a Navy Chaplain like he and I had often talked about. This news threw me off my rocker. He...

From the first time we met Dean we were pleasantly surprised to know such a wonderful person and relish his beautiful smile. He was so much fun on all our adventures into the High Sonoran desert around Wickenburg. He had it all arranged for our trek to The William´s Family Ranch on several occasions and a great time was had by all due to his thoughtfulness and foresight.

Went to look you up and found you had passed away. Wanted to say thank you for deciding to be a teacher and having a huge impact on my life. You taught a finance block of instruction that wasn't part of the curriculum and it inspired me in a bunch of ways I really wanted to share with you because I could tell how much you cared about our futures. You were a great person and I'm extremely fortunate to cross paths with you at that part of my life. Rest in peace Chief!

Dear Jean and family, I was saddened to read of Dean's passing, but I rejoice in his graduation to Heaven with honors for living a life as a son of God should. He was always positive, and if he had some wisdom to share, I always listened carefully. zi rfemember well his ready smile and the certainty he exhibited simply by being in a room! I know you must miss him so much! May you be blessed by your memories of him, and my God give you the peace that passes understanding through His Son Jesus...
