Dee was a devout Christian and enjoyed a great many things during his life. Fishing Sooner

Lake, making homemade ice cream for the grandkids on the porch, and reading Louis L’amour

western books were just a few things he enjoyed. Most of all he enjoyed his time with Annette,

watching their children, grandchildren and even great grandchildren grow up before their eyes.

His grandchildren and great grandchildren will cherish memories of both Schwan’s ice cream as

well as homemade ice cream, Schwan’s Lemon Creme Pies, Club Crackers shared and even

the occasional game of chess, dominoes or rummy. Most of all, they will cherish the hugs and

love bestowed upon them by him in this life.
