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.

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 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.

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.
