It is with a very, very heavy heart that I inform everyone that Farmer Dean has passed.
He fought cancer and then septic infections and pneumonia valiantly for 3 years before succumbing.
He loved his farm and his wife Becky and his horses and his incredible gun collection very much.
I had the honor of talking to him many, many times and several days before his death.
Please take a moment to remember him.
He deserves it.
So sorry to hear. Prayers sent
That was beautiful and thank you
He believed so much! He had no doubts.
We were a contrast. He knew I had my moments of doubt but he never judged me and just said to keep praying.
I can’t begin to imagine in my last days being concerned with other people’s souls instead of myself.
He was a better man than me.
And it would be an insult to him to not try harder.
We made a deal that if he kept fighting I would pray more and read the Bible more and try to get closer to God.
And then we never spoke again.
I will keep my part of the bargain.
His His was in the hands of God already.
RIP, prayers up for his loved ones.
RIP...and give his family peace.
Prayers.
I offer up my heartfelt prayers for his departed soul and for the loved ones he left behind.
Farmer Dean is in the Lord’s hands now. While we will all miss him, he knows joy at last. My condolences and prayers for his friends and family.
A loss to FR.

Ping...
Farmer Dean has passed and now resides with the Lord where the weather is fair, weeds are nonexistent and every year is a bumper crop.
May the Lord comfort his wife Becky and give her the strength not just to endure but thrive.
That's the Holy Spirit working for all of us, through Farmer Dean.
"Peace that surpasses human understanding"
We all have the same job - to worship God, to love our neighbors, and to bring our neighbors to faith that Jesus Christ is the Lord. Okay, three jobs!
I have a sense that Farmer Dean knew this in a very real way, and is now seated with Jesus at the right hand of God the Father. Prayers for you, dp0622, for comfort on this loss, for Farmer Dean's family, and all who were touched by him.
I didn’t interact with him but once or twice, but I’m always saddened when we lose a FRiend. May his family be comforted, and may he rest in peace.
‘Face
I didn’t know him. But sorry to hear this news. Prayers up for his family and friends.
I’m very sorry about your loss and the loss to all his friends and family.
