Mr. John Dean Bukas

Dean was preceded in death by his parents, John and Cleo Bukas; and brother, Tony Wayne Sprinkle.

Dean is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Rose Hauser Bukas; daughter, Sherri Annette Bukas Bowman and husband Dwayne Eddie Bowman); 3 beautiful grandchildren who he loved with all his heart, Brandon Dean Bukas, Brooke Haleigh Bukas, and Kayla Rose Williams; several brother and sisters-in-law, Wayne and Pat Hauser, Roland and Rachel Hauser, the late Joe Hauser (Colleen), the late Harold Hauser (Joanne); many special nieces and nephews; and several close family friends who will all miss him greatly.

“A man is not judged by words, but by his good deeds.”

Dean was a pillar of the Tobaccoville community. He was the neighbor you would call if you were in need and he was there.

Dean was an active deer hunter and loved showing his trophies. There is nothing he enjoyed more than hunting season.
