Sosad to lose such an important person to so many people. Merle would have been devastated by his loss. Dean was present at the "Red Carpet Shop Incident" in, 1971 ? Want to say that his memorial was an inspiration to me. Bless you all.

Fond and fun loving memories are all the ones I have of Dean. He always had a kind heart and made me laugh a lot. However, I hated being in a HS class that he was in because it affected me adversely on the grading curve. He was sooooo smart! Thinking of you all and sending hugs of comfort.

When we were growing up together, Dean never met a crawdad he did not like. That wonder developed into one of the smartest individuals I ever crossed paths with. Our prayers to the family. I know Dean is now assisting God with the most challenging issues.
