My brother Dean passed away today. It came as a shock to everyone, I am still in denial as I write this. He had the strength of a thousand men, the wisdom of a buddha and a sense of humor that brought joy to every person he knew. He was a husband to the love of his life Crystal Jewell Pitcher, a father to Dean Pitcher and Amanda Jewell, a son to Wanda Crocker. He was more than a brother to me, he was a friend, a role model and a father figure etc... I have never known life without him, without his advice, his friendship, his company, his laughter, his wisdom, his kindness he will always remain in my heart. He touched the heart of every person that he encountered, I am so lucky that I knew him my whole life. Love and Light! God Speed to you my brother!
