The world lost one of the last true good ol’ boys. Dino took care of my single mother as I grew up, I don’t know where we would have been without him.
My favorite thing were his stories. He would always talk so quietly, I would strain to listen so I wouldn’t miss a word. He was a damn good storyteller. Such a great sense of humor and boy, had that man lived a full life.
My family was blessed to have him become a part of ours, our county was blessed to have him serve in Korea and he will be missed by many.

I am so sorry to hear of Dean’s passing. He worked, played softball and bowled with my dad. Please know he was such a great guy and friend to our family. Sending prayers to all the family, he will be missed.

My sympathy to all the family. I grew up near Dean in Wyoming. He hunted with my father, Myron French, many times. Especially Fox hunting. I have wonderful memories of his whole family.

I am saddened to learn of Dean's passing and wish to extend my deep and sincere condolences to Dean's Family. I worked with Dean for about 15 years at Iowa Illinois Gas & Electric. Dean was a good man and one of the nicest coworkers I had there. I pray that The Lord comforts his family now and always. Amen.
