CandleI have so many great memories growing up with tony. My deepest condolences to the entire family. My heart is deeply sadened he will be greatly missed. He was a great friend, a brother, a confidant, and had a great sense of humor. He loved to laugh and have fun. He loved his children and his family and friends. I know how close him and his twin brother have always been. I cant imagine how painful this is to you all. I love all of you so much. I always told tony and tommy, friends are just family you pick... rest in peace tony.

One of, my favorite memories is of the kids mother. Linda always thought it was cute to name the boys Tony Dean and Tommy Dean, UNTIL she had to mark their school stuff. She always had to write their whole name on everything because of the same initials. RIP Tony, you will be greatly missed.

My mind still has not accepted your passing,dear brother. I know that one day, I WILL see you again. Until then, my hope is in the Lord...Isaiah 40:31...'...but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles;they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.' Isaiah 41:13 'For I am the Lord, Your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you. I pray these verses will be a great source of strength to all who read them.

Always a fun kid to be around. We made a couple of movies with the family. One had he and Tommy being Dracula and Frankenstein. I never thought of him as being younger than me because I just loved him for who he was.

Thank you tracy

To my brother. ...you were there for me from the time we were little playing on the farm with the animals and running all over the farm. We would have the best times rocking out to kiss and running around at four mile creek catching crusades and fishing. Also falling on the ice and freezing our toes and having to walk all the way home. Having green Apple fights with the neighbors and uncle Danny coming to our rescue. Fishing and swimming and having great times around the bonfires. Flying kites in the neighbors yard in the spring. Watching Saturday morning wrestling and then practicing the moves ourselves. Helping me with my youngest twin daughters Marie and Kristina. Always a great uncle to them. We will hold dear to your memory and always remember the good times. God had you now and you are looking down on all of us giving us strength to continue until we meet again. I love you my dearest brother.

Angel, Ry, and Tracy and the rest of Tony's family. We didn't know Tony very well but he was a Godsend to Ryun.I would call Ry and hear Tony laughing in the background. Tony taught Ry so many things. Working on the racecar, fixing Ry's old camper into a duck blind, and who's kicking who's butt on Xbox. When Angel called me about his passing my heart just sank.I didn't know how to help her.Tony will be greatly missed by all who knew him. I know in my heart that he's watching over his family and friends. God bless you Tony for being in our lives.
