He grew up and learned life's lesson as to what was important and that was his family. Dean was a devoted husband and family man to his wife Janice Hastings Case and daughters Nicole (Ron), Stephanie, Angela and Mariah. He was true to his roots of being born and raised in the northeast Ohio area. He never forgot those roots and the friends he made along the way of life's journey. As a lifelong boater on Lake Erie, he loved the water and boating second only to his family. He enjoyed sharing his love for the sport with his family and friends. He was a hard worker and enjoyed being outdoors working around the house and in the garden. He unselfishly tried to make the world a better place by helping family and friends whenever he could. He will be sadly missed by all of the people he's touched over the years. (Akron Beacon Journal) |
