You were truly one of my favorite relatives!
You were such a kind, generous, sweet, and loving man! You had such a great love for the Lord and that love you generously shared with all who would receive!
You always reminded me of Roy Rogers. As I watch the old movies that Roy Rogers made, I see so much of the Deane that I remember as I was growing up. Roy had his Trigger and you had your white “mustang”.
Wonderful men! Both had great love for their families and the Lord!
I miss you so much already! Looking forward to seeing you again – on your “white horse” when the Lord gathers us all together!
Until then – my dear uncle, Deaney – “Happy Trails to You…Until We Meet Again”.
Sorry for your loss
