I have nothing but good memories of Dean. He had a wonderful life.
James and I are so sorry for your loss. Dean will make sure everything is ship shape in heaven.

Dear Erma, Mike & Diane and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of the summers working at Meadow Lane when I was in college and I'm so grateful that I got to know Dean. He always had a story that could make me laugh and I learned some valuable lessons from him. The first time I met him he looked at me and said,"So you're one of Mike's boys? You play football for him? You know he pushes you because he believes in you and he knows you can do the things he asks you to do."
Visiting with Dean was something I looked forward to those summers and looking back he was teaching me some important lessons about life. "Respect others\
Erma, Mike and families. Dean will be missed by many. He always had stories to tell and greeted you with a bear hug. Thinking of you all.
I really enjoyed Dean at the Ballard Country Club playing golf with him. He was always a friendly person. Sorry for your loss. Semper Fi, Nels Nord

Dean and my dad were very good friends - I liked Dean as much as anyone in my family - He was good to me and that is what I go by in my world - He shot straight across the board and was as strong as was needed in standing up against me and for me all at the same time - I will take that to the bank - He wasn't very tall but he was a tough son of a gun - I heard stories about dad and Dean - I am guessing they were true - The last time I saw Dean was at Aunt Margaret's funeral in July of 2017 - I was having some serious difficulties back then and Dean took me aside and made me promise to make a change concerning this matter - He will never know how much I appreciate him standing up and against me while being as for me as a man can be - His words are ringing more true as time goes on - Truth and experience was his strong suit - And he had a lot of both - I wish I would have been able to be a little better of a friend to Dean - But that is not to be taken personal - Heck - That is the way it has been in my life for over 20 years now - But of the people I care about - Dean rated as high as anyone on that chart - Because he let me be me and without judgement - Cause he knew and he understood me at depth - Thank you Dean - God Bless Dean Flummerfelt - And God Bless all of his family and friends - May he rest in peace - Tommy
