    My deepest and most sincere condolences on the family’s loss. I barely knew Dean long ago, as I was a friend of his brother Kenneth in high school. However some bonds last forever.

  17. Angela (Baty) Elliott on March 11th, 2010 3:09 am

    LaDonna,
    Just wanted to say how sorry I am for your family’s loss. I know that he will be deeply missed. My family’s prayers go out to you and your family in your time of sorrow. I will pray for courage and strength for your family. We love you.

  18. Gregg Peterson on March 11th, 2010 1:39 pm

    My condolences to the Roberts family and especially Dean’s children. I was a high school friend of Kenneth and remember Dean as the little brother who wanted to “hang out” with his big brother and his friends. He had a good sense of humor and a life well lived.

  19. Becky (Blanton) Rogers on March 19th, 2010 8:30 pm

    Terry, LaDonna, Kenneth, Mark, Don & Mary – I was so sorry to learn of the loss of Dean! I just recently found out and was greatly saddened to hear of the news. I am also sorry to also learn of the death of Bruce too! I miss all of you and think of you quite often! You all will always be a part of my life and in my thoughts!

    To Dean’s wife and family – so very sorry for your loss! He will be missed in this world.

  20. Ella Shirley on March 20th, 2010 4:40 pm

    I am so sorry to hear of Deanie’s passing. Life is just so short and you never know when God will tap you on the shoulder and let you know it’s time to go home. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
