I learned tonight that we lost Dean in January.

Dean was a long time Newell owner, and had attended a few of the Non Rally Rallies.
I first met him at Tyler State Park in 2007 quite by accident. His Newell was there attending a Dutch oven cooking get together.
Many of us will remember his biscuits and gravy cooked in Dutch ovens, which he served in Ruidoso.
I have fond memories of Dean. I learned very quickly that he didn't talk a lot, but when he did, it was best to listen. He knew his stuff on the coach workings.

dean was a gentleman and i am proud so say i have known him.
i can taste the biscuits and gravy as i write this.
it has been nearly 15 years since darlene and i bought our first newell. the many many friends we have made has been one one of the highlights of my life. as we age, our friends begin to pass. there have been others before dean and more will follow. that said, it has been an honor and pleasure to know dean and all of you that i have met in some way.
tom and darlene
