You have been gone 11 years I will always remember the last time I saw you. I will never forget the last memories I had with you.
I first met Dean 4 years ago when I was working at Gregory Springs and Dean was working with the Reid’s on Pretty Plains next door. Being new to the area and not knowing many people my own age I jumped at the chance when Dean and Kevin Reid asked me to go shooting with them one night. I had just met Dean however he seemed like the sort of fella who was really easy to get on with. We had a great night with lots of laughs. And that is how a great friendship and many memories began. One memory that really sticks out in my mind is the night that Dean and Kevin decided to take 10 years off my life. Dean, Kevin and I had gone out roo shooting one night in 2004. Dean had just shot a roo and Kevin had jumped out to find it. I was deep in conversation with Dean so I didn’t see Kevin find and catch the Joey that had belonged to the now dead roo. Dean however had been watching Kevin and managed to keep a straight face and decided not to tell me about it. Kevin then threw the Joey through the window at me. I was halfway over Deans’ lap and out the other window when Dean started killing himself laughing at me. I can assure you Dean never let me live that one down. Dean was such a generous, kind and caring man who gave the best bear hugs. I keep expecting to get a txt or phone call from him just to catch up. I’ll miss you Deano mate.
For those of you who don't know. I am a country music singer and I have always liked writing funny songs. While working with deano out at Lorraine Station, I did alot of that. When we would be out mustering, I would start singing any old song out of the blue and I would change the words to make it funny, but if I got stuck and couldn't think of any words... deano would always be there to help, and what really sucked was that he was better at rhyming words to a song than what I was!!! And it was always funny...
Deano taught me alot when I was working with him and I will never forget him.
We'll always miss him! xoxoxoxoxoxo *~Mitch~*
~~~~~A Romantic Memory ~~~~~
I will never forget the night Dean told me he loved me for the first time.....I knew he had someting to tell me and i kept asking him , "what was wrong" , but he would insist that all was fine , so after asking several times , he lifted my head up so that we'd be looking eye to eye and he said to me " I LOVE YOU AND ALWAY HAVE " .... That was at Wrothem Park near Chillagoe in the donga you see to the left in the picture ! He was more of a romantic then i could have ever imagined.
