Dear Alice and Chris and Family, So sorry to hear of Dean's passing. I can't believe how close his passing was to Charlie's. I am sending condolences on behalf of my family Dave and Linda Secor as well as Duane Goltry. Dad, Don Holmes and Dean had a nice visit at Charlie's visitation. Alice take care of yourself. Bless your heart for all that you have done for Deaner. Linda Goltry Secor (Classmate of Betty's and IES Co-Worker) God Bless you for all that you Posted by Linda Goltry Secor May 27, 2010

Dear Chris, Alice & Family My heart is filled with sadness at your loss of Dean. I can not imagine the pain you feel now but I wanted to let you know that our loving thoughts are with you. We can only say how much we will miss Dean as well. No words can express how much a part of your life he was, and always will be. I know that Dean will be held in your heart forever. Dean was a jewel among us, always giving us a shining example of kindness and caring. A prime example of this is when Dean always made sure that the City Hall Parking lot was plowed so I wouldn't fall or have to walk in the snow. Posted by Heidi Gomez May 27, 2010
