We'll miss you Grampa Dean

Dean Goodman passed away today.

Grandpa/Great-grandpa Dean is one of my favorite people for a myriad of reasons. He reminded me a lot of my own father, strong, hard working, kind and unflappable. His biscuits and gravy were the best! (I didn't like biscuits and gravy until I tried his). I enjoyed our trips to Benson, AZ to visit Grampa. We talked about guy stuff, tractors/trucks/guns and family. After moving back to MT, we were excited to have him and Janice visit a couple of times. I remember having dinner at Bogart's in Red Lodge the night before they left last summer. We ate some pretty good Mexican food and talked about kids, sports and everything else in-between. In my mind, and in all regards, he is what a man should aspire to be. Grandpa Dean, we'll miss you.
