I worked with Dean and he always cheered me up with his lovely smile. He was so kind. I sometimes bumped into him around Mickleover and we had a nice chat. So sad to hear of his passing. God bless xx

Always had time for you, because there are not many like you Dean who had time for everyone... Great lad with a world beating smile rip.. Mark eley

Can’t comprehend that you have gone I’ll really miss you. Send my love to BJ & Tracey

I just cannot quite believe this, me and Dean where in the railway training school together 1966 at 15, so young and so happy. Rest in peace, great lad. Love from Hench x
