I also had the privilege of being the best man when Dean married my mother in London Ontario. Dean was so kind and caring when Pamela was sick and supported her to the very end. He really was quite fearless about facing life - always ready to push forward.

So many terrific memories associated with Dean with whom I had the privilege to work in the mid seventies!
A genius of a man so passionate about life!
Happy flying Dean wherever you may be!

Our deepest condolences to the Edmonds family. I know my late father Raymond Jones goes way back with  Dean, with their mutual passion for exotic cars and airplanes. Two great men who accomplished great things. 


I remember so many fun things we did. One time we collected the Rolls Royce convertible from Jack Barclay's  in London and the four of us (Dean, Pam, Katrina and myself) went for a ride. That night we had a party at our flat on Lower Sloane and I proposed to Katrina - we were all very excited however that night I also contracted Malaria and there was a ambulance strike. Dean and Katrina drove me to St Pancras Hospital for treatment in the rolls. Hospital staff were obviously quite impressed!

I remember first meeting Dean at his home in London Ontario. It must have been around 1970. It's a silly thing but I saw him using his Hewlett Packard calculator and he explained what RPN logic was all about ." George" he said " you've gotta get one of these calculators! you'll never get anywhere in life with out one! " and he laughed. Anyway I got one and have just had it replaced from the "antique" section of E Bay in December. It's on my desk now and I think of himn when using"

I'll share some other memories later and , although I haven't seen him for so long, I miss him and his invitations to come out for a visit.

best wishes

To Anne, Bettie, Dean and Louie

Your dad was a force of nature. Thank you for sharing him with me. I have memories of  flying with him when Bettie and I were high school age at Brimmer. Also really fun dinners and driving into Boston in his loved, special cars. Happy memories of Tamarack Road. He re entered my life, in the greatest way, through my husband being his orthopedic surgeon. We had fun with him again these last years. Dinners at TCC and having him here at are home. It was really special. I will treasure always my time with your dad. 

Thinking of all of you. ❤️
