  1. I am a colleague of Susan’s at Prairie.
    Susan, Dan, and all family, I am so sorry for your loss. God bless you.
    Lori Danker

  2. How we all remember at a packed Kingston Stadium for the annual Cedar Rapids Jefferson Washington football game, when Dean “spontaneously borrowed????”, the plastic Washington Roman Legion Warrior’s sword and ran with all his might across the field with borrowed sword aloft. No way could the Washington lads catch him. The roar and laughter that he brought to the whole stadium, I can still see and hear it as if it was yesterday.
    No one needs Dean more than Our Everlasting Heavenly Father. He needs him now

  3. So sad to hear, it wasn’t that long ago he drove by my house. Dean lived down the street from me, when he saw me outside would always stop to talk. Loved his laugh, had many fun times with Dean, always laughing. Now he’s with his soul mate Linda. My sympathy to the family.

  4. Shared many Great times with My Cousin Dean ,I also share his Birth Day, His Name, (and perhaps his Ornery Spirit) My sincere Condolences to His Family and Friends, May he Rest in Peace.
    A lifetime of Laughter and friendship will be greatly missed.
    See you on the Other side Brother!
