Dean, how fortunate I am to have you as a brother-in-law. Thank you for welcoming me into this loving family. I remember my first date with Wayne. He told me about how his brother is such a riot and spoke so enthusiastically of you. Then I met you and Chickee-Baby-Mama (Colleen) for the first time in Richard and Donna's home. Wayne was absolutely right. We joked and laughed that entire visit.
I am so grateful to you for all you have done over the years, the flood of memories you left and the generosity you showed. All the times you and Colleen came over and played games like Scrabble, Risk and Taboo with us, all the cookouts we've had (I appreciated you and Colleen making the special macaroni salad with no egg for Elijah Dean and myself), for all the holidays we spent together (thank you for taking the time to make gravy each year for Thanksgiving), every single time we helped each other move to a new home, and for all the love and patience you showed the boys. This is just a small portion of the memories you gave.
It didn't matter if you knew someone for a lifetime or for a brief time, you have a special place in everyone's hearts. You were not only Wayne's best man, you were everyone's best man. We love you, Dean, and we will always fondly remember you.

Baby Brother, how I miss you. How grateful that God
blessed me with over 59 years to live and laugh with you as my brother.
We grew up in a family with unconditional love. Through easy times and hard times, we always knew we had each other. I had three strong, protecting, devoted brothers. But, as the youngest, Dean, you
had a special place in all our hearts.
I hope you knew how much joy you gave by being
kind, witty, super-charged, talented, wonderful you!
You were my shoulder to lean on and my loyal friend.
You were my Brother.
How I miss you. But I have peace in knowing your with
our Lord , surrounded by his love and all our loved ones gone before us. Until, with God’s mercy and grace we are all together again, know I love you.
Your big Sis

First of all my condolences to Colleen, my cousin Wayne and Sherry, and Aunt Donna. I grew up with Dean and my fondest memory is wading in Fish Creek in the summertime and catching smallmouth bass for hours, and then taking a swim to cool off. Those were the greatest days of my childhood. The one thing I remember most about Dean is when there would be gathering and stranger was there, Dean would greet them with a smile and a story to welcome them. Dean was such a talented musician which was all natural talent. I remember when he would practice by himself in the back room for hours. Then we got a band together. We threw a beer blast at New London Fire house for our first live performance and rocked the house. The fondest memory was my Uncle Richard drinking George S Dickel and so proud of his two sons shouting and just having a great time. Of course Dean rocked the house with his guitar playing. Over the years we lost contact, but when we did run into each other he always had smile and we would reminisce for hours. Colleen was the true light of his life. I remember whenever Colleen entered the room the smile on Deans face. I have so many memories of Me and Dean I could probably write a book. They are all great and fun memories. Dean you were my confidant, great friend, and cousin and I love you. You will be missed greatly, but I have my memories, Rest in Peace until we meet again. Again my condolences to you Colleen. To my cousins and Aunt and Uncle I am what I am today because of all of you, Thanks for the memories. Daryl Cooper

Dean was the love of my life, my best friend, my everything. He had a way of making everybody who came in contact with him laugh. He was the most amazing husband and he will be greatly missed. He would say to me "honey will you love me for the rest of my life and I would say to him no honey I'm going to love you for the rest of mine"❤️❤️❤️❤️

At Ground Zero Blue’s Club in Clarksdale, MS., we wowed them to a standing ovation. Just a note; Morgan Freeman is 1/2 owner. I will never find a better band mate, co-writer or friend . Until we meet again and jam in Heaven.
