Dean worked with us at Hanna Steel for four years. We are all deeply sadden by the loss of such a great young man. A dedicated employee, hard worker, and great friend to all. His presence will be greatly missed. A sense of humor that goes beyond words, and a personality that touched all that knew him. He loved his family more than life, and our thoughts and prayers are with you all. May he rest in peace, and my God Bless those left behind with his strength and love.
