Not sure what to say?

Dear Marilyn: Was saddened to hear of Dean's passing. My father, Harry Neal, knew Dean thru Consumers Power, and enjoyed taking Dean fishing on Saginaw Bay. I also knew Dean personally while I worked in Human Resources in Kalamazoo. Dean worked with Gene McGraw, whose son Scott married our daughter. God Bless you. Jack Neal Portage.

That bugger sure could kick a football....Mike and I used to stand on Morningside Drive and he would punt the football way up in the air and we would signal 'fair catch' and try to grab it when it came down.
He also used to call my dad 'ole 'bobby Kraatz'.....gosh I sure miss him a lot....Steve Kraatz

Sure had fun the dAY THAT Dean Duck hunted with Me. Also had fun the day he came on my ice boat with me & Dennis. Sorry, Herman & Lorna Fischer

Call the ducks in Deano!!!!!!!!

Hello Cuz, all of our duckhunting crew send their condolences. They all remember Deano from his hunting ducks with us on Sea Gull Bar and the large duck call he used (Herman's). His jokes kept us laughing so loud no ducks flew into the decoys........but we sure had a good time with him. Love from the Menekaunee Duck Hunters

We cherish the great memories as the "Dukes"of Paulann Drive. We will remember the golf, the fishing, and the jokes. What a great family as neighbors. God Bless you all, Pat and Bud Slebiska

Just read the obituary with my parents. Many warm memories of Dean. Such a ray of positivity. I thought he was Santa because I saw my 3 speed Christmas bike in his garage at age 6 and that was how I put it together; didn't question Santa, just though that must be Dean Sible. Fine man. Love to all. Jody Slebiska Jessup.

Phil and I just heard. He will certainly be remembered with smiles and love. What a story teller and what a wonderful attitude. Hang in there we love you. Sympathy to Mike and Pam also.
Love you.
Sandi and Phil

Marilyn, You are in our prayers. Dean is at that big Tiki Bar in the sky, will never forget our first Tiki & all the good times we had at the Bahamian Club. He was the life of the party. Both of you are missed. God Bless you & your family.

We were so sorry to hear about Deano and appreciate Mike's call very much. We know that Dean is now resting in peace and probably playing a perfect round of golf on the best course in Heaven. We know that it will be a loss to everyone that knew Dean. We'll remember the good times....casino trips, happy hours,and trips to Florida where we spent some time on the side of the road. Marilyn, please take care of yourself and we'll be in touch. Love ya!
