Dean was a strong-willed, independent woman who was deeply loved by all who knew her. A longtime member of Harwood Baptist Church, she dedicated many years to keeping it clean and welcoming. She was a member of the Owls Club and Eagles Club, where she made countless friends and lasting memories. Dean found joy in spending time with her family, dancing, and singing karaoke.
