It is impossible to pay tribute to aunt Dean without recognizing the important role that spirituality played in her life. I have some wonderful memories of aunt Dean – I realize that her quiet faith guided her actions, words, and deeds. She always wanted to be the best she could be - wife, mother, and aunt. I will miss her. My love goes out to you all. In His name.
