My condolences to his wife and children. I worked with Dean at the city for a long time. He was truly a fun guy to work with. Always greeted me with a smile and a hey buddy as we saw one another throughout the day!! We also drove two of the oldest trucks to work. I admired his as he did mine. I will truly miss him!! God definitely inherited a true gentleman
