DEAN C. JOHNSON

I'm so sorry to hear of Dean's passing. I grew up on Hidden Way and used to play at the Stedman Street School and he would come up and push us on the swings. He was so friendly and nice. M condolences to his family. He was a great guy!

Fellow writer, Lowellian here. I not only loved Dean as a friend but admired him as a scribe and especially as a person. Folks speak of someone who will never be replaced. in this case, it's an understatement.

Our condolences to Denyse and the entire family. We were all shocked and saddened to learn of Dean´s sudden passing. We join with his many friends, listeners and readers in saying that he has left us much too soon and will be sorely missed. May his Memory be as a Blessing and his good works endure forever.

Sorry to learn of Dean's death. He was such a wonderful Brother, andso great at detecting what was on my mind without me even saying it. I'll miss him! I have great love for Denise and offer my assistance to her in any way that she needs it!! Love Always, Sis. Geri DeVane

Dean had a way of lighting up every room and filling it with energy. I loved battles of wits with him even though I lost every time. We spent five years together as elders in Lowell, his experience and more importantly his love for the friends has inspired me for years. When the day comes that Jehovah calls for him, I will be in the very long line to welcome him back.

our thoughts and prayers are with the Johnson family. Dean adopted is Southerners and was a friend to us for decades. He was genuinely a caring person and left such a positive legacy for the rest of his family and friends. Alice in Wonderland will always trigger a memory.

Although I know our separation from our dear friend Dean is temporary, he is sorely missed. Dean was always up for fun, never a cross word, and an amazing orator. I enjoyed spending time with him and Denyse in the congregation, socially, and at the beach. May Denyse be enveloped with the love and support from everyone during this extremely difficult time.

Sad to hear this news . Dean was one of the most important credible and knowledgeable writers in Boston ;following radio and entertainment! Dean made broadcast communications and music an important part of the cities culture. He was a really good reporter, a wonderful person and a friend to all in the business. He elevated the visibility of people and performers in entertainment here in town I am really sad to hear of his passing . Thanks for all u did to help me over the years. RIP my man....
