Aaron, Eric, and Jennifer, we are so sorry to hear about your Dad. You may not remember us, but we were best friends of your Mom and Dad in West Des Moines, Iowa. We lived across the street and you all played with our kids, Jason and Lisa. Our families had so much fun together and we are sorry we lost touch with your parents! All our sympathy, David and Julie Dunn

Eileen, I am so sorry for your loss. I am glad you had the years together that you did. He will be missed. It was a privilege working with him back in 1985. He and Sam Braland were a joy to be around. Hugs to you and to his children whom he loved so much. BJ

Sorry to hear of Dean's death. Dean's volunteer help, advice, and support for American Legion Post 403 was instrumental in getting the Post back on its' feet after the Post revitalized. Working with Dean was always a pleasure and I will miss our talks. Please accept my condolences and the condolences of Post 403 as we forward our prayers for the family.

So very sorry to hear of Dean's passing. We got to know Dean back in the 'Microware' days. He was so very helpful with our private legal needs and tax needs. He was a caring, wonderful man. He always asked about Sarah, which always meant so much to me. I made the drive to Earlham from Carlisle every year at tax time...no one was better! My condolences to Eileen, Aaron, Jennifer and Eric. Thoughts and prayers to ease your days ahead.

So sorry to hear of Dean passing. I only saw him a couple of times after working at Thelma Jackson's but always liked him and his sense of humor! God bless you all.

I have known Dean for many years; working with him in different capcities. Always enjoyed sharring stories about our children playing football to trapping. He gave one of my sons some trapping equipment to start him on his trapping adventure. I spent more money on gas than we ever got out of hides. He was a good attorney and a good man. Always had a positive attitude. He will be missed. May his family find strength in the Lord and your fond memories of Dean. God be with you all.
