Dean went on to earn his master’s degree (MBA) from Franklin University. He loved to read and learn, educating himself on subjects of interest. Dean enjoyed taking photos, he often was not present in many of the family photos because he was behind the camera capturing the memories. He was also a computer enthusiast and showed his creativity in making ink pens out of wood from Bethlehem. Dean’s strongest passion was spending time with his wife Martha of 55 years whom he deeply loved. Dean was a lifelong member of Benfield Christian Church. He loved the Lord, and it could be seen through his being a generous and giving person to others.
