I am SO very sorry to hear of Dean’s passing. I just heard of this tonight (Friday Oct 7th). My condolences to the whole family. I always thought the world of Dean. He was always such a gentleman, always with a big smile.
May your many amazing memories carry you forward.
We had not personally met Dean until our relocation to Peterborough in 2011 despite both having ties to the Cobourg and Grafton area. Dean had many talents assisting us with many upgrades and renovations to our neighbouring home. I greatly enjoyed the camarderie while jointly discussing the planning of each project He was the Salt-Of-The-Earth and will be greatly missed by all of his past acquaintances. Becky and I send our sincere condolences to Glenda and family. Kind regards, Don Bourne Becky Bonisteel-Bourne
Steve and Kim and Families Regardless of the circumstances, it’s really tough to say goodbye to your parents and grandparents. Thinking of you. Barb and Ron
