Dean was one heck of a guy. I remember my first day of high school, Mrs. Freets math class. Mrs. Freet had decided to make every student personally aware of their shortcomings, at least when it came to math(she was stern, but overall a fair teacher, she was building backbones on us 9th graders) but Dean noticed she had taken it a bit to far for some students, myself included... Dean made it his mission to make everyone smile in that math class. He made us laugh until we thought our stomachs were bursting with laughter. I'll forever remember that day, when he stood up for us, and made us all feel welcome. Thank you Dean, rest easy, and fly high.
