Not sure what to say?

Wow! It has been a year. Dean was the same age as my cousin and passed on the same day. We stayed friends with Brad after the remodel and have warm memories of the two men's work. As our friends get ready to remodel we have told them about Deans work. So he is still a part of the remodel on our house we enjoy so very very much. We will always remember this kind and bright man who left too soon. We hope his children know that others remember and honor their father.

From the entire staff at Builders' Energy Services we extend our heart felt condolences. Dean will be missed here. We always loved to see his projects come into to our office. He had a great talent for designing wonderful spaces for his clients. His insight to making an existing house into a place of light and function was a delight for us to see. He will be missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

As Brad Hanson's painter, I have appreciated working on Dean's projects over the years. His obituary was informational and thoughtfully done. We are all so sorry for his loss, and have his family and friends in our thoughts.
Respectfully, Chesnos Painting Inc.

We are so grateful that Dean saw our project through to completion. After so many years, all his hard work and creativity became a 3-D reality. During all the time, he was patient, kind and encouraging. We are honored to have worked with Dean and have a lasting memory of him. So, many reminders of our discussions everywhere we look. We send our thoughts of comfort and peace to Liz and their children and the Rhoads/Pew families.

We first met Dean over two years ago, and decided to work with him, almost instantly. He was very professional and trying really hard to gain an insight into what we really wanted, without powering us with his ideas. The most prominent aspect of Dean was simply just how likeable he was. The most thorough gentleman one could ever wish to meet, and we are really glad we got to know him over the years. In a bitter sweet moment, we moved into our finished home yesterday. Dean will always be in...

Dean Rhoads was our beloved neighbor for many years. We'll always remember what a great father, husband, and neighbor he was. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rhoads family.

Dean designed our home extension and remodel. Throughout the design process, Dean maintained unwavering focus on his concept while incorporating our suggestions and that of the city. His architecture modernized the floorplan, seamlessly integrated the extension, and maintained architectural harmony with the neighborhood. Our friends and neighbors still marvel at the wonderful design.

Our deepest sympathy to Liz and the kids for their loss. Dean will always remain in our thoughts...

I remember Dean's transition to utilizing curved surfaces in the designs he was producing. We all figured that he was getting bored drawing straight lines, but the designs he came up with were absolutely stunning!
