I hadn't seen Dean for a few years but had known him for a long time. He was a good friend of my older brothers and would come over now and then, they played together on one of the best football teams Lynden had .... way back in the day... he was always kind to me the kid sister. He was a nice man and I'm sure has gone home... at peace... free of any pain ... my thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends..

My heart goes out to all of you during this difficult time. Thank you for allowing me to be included during such a personal time. Although we are grieving, it is so wonderful to see the love and support you all provide for one another and the comfort knowing Vicki has all of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and know you are all in my thoughts.

I'll never forget the day my grand daughter and I were trapped in our car during heavy falling snow and Dean took us safely home in his car and never spun a tire the whole way while cars and trucks were in the fields and ditches. He was an "Angel" I just thank the Lord for him.
