Dean Michael Trafelet

Very sorry to hear of Dean's passing. I knew his sweet & charming parents, who lived a block from us in La Grange Park. Condolences to Dean's family and friends.

Dean was a first class person in all life pursuits - lawyer, judge, hunter, fisherman, actor and a super friend to me and many people. Always a first class storyteller about the great outdoors, I´ll relish memories of Dean´s organized boar hunts and arctic fishing. Somewhere out there, I´m sure he´s spinning a yarn with a cigar near at hand about the one that got away.
My condolences to Dean´s sons and Louise.

Deepest sympathies from your Door County neighbors, Kevin, Janet, Jack , Corinne, Bubs Ryan and Thomas White.

As Business Manager as well as performer for our Christmas Spirits show, Dean always exhibited not only a lively sense of humor, but a spirit of cooperation with those of us creators who needed guidance regarding how our budget would be spent for the show. He was talented and fun to be around, had a really good sense of humor and was a truly important addition to the Show's creative team. I picture him now, finding a physical area not unlike Northern Canada, hunting for the wild animal creatures he loved to hunt. Thank you, Dean, for some wonderful memories.

My best friend growing up in Berwyn Illinois and we had many crazy adventures together, We certainly kept the local police busy with our many capers. He had a good life and will always be in my memories
