Mavis, as Deb said, we will miss Dean at the neighborhood parties. He was a fine man with good wit and a lot of grace. It was so clear how proud he was of his family.

If you get in a jam and need help from time to time, you can find me down the street.

Best wishes to all of you as you remember Dean.

Mavis and family,

We so enjoyed having conversations with Dean about the "olden" days at our yearly block party. He will be missed in our neighborhood. We know what a difficult time this is for all of you. We pray for peace in your hearts. We will think of Dean fondly. God Bless - The Sposito family, Deb, Loren, Tia and Cooper
