    Oh My Dear Sweet Uncle, You were my fathers Big Brother and one of my most wonderful memories as a child! You will be Greatly Missed by All who have met you. I think back often of my childhood and remember going to Kentucky to visit everyone. Seeing you and Aunt Geneva’s welcoming faces was always a great feeling. You certainly loved the little kids and they loved you. Give my dad a great big hug for me and tell him I miss and Love Him! I wish I could see that reunion in heaven. I remember the smile on my dad’s face to see his family every time we visited. Rest In Peace Uncle Dean, Love Your Niece, April (Sissy)
