Obituary
Jack Edward Dean, Sr. passed from this life to be with God on Monday, March 26, 2018 at the age of 79.
Born in Meridian, MS he moved to DeLand in 1941. A 1956 graduate of DeLand High School, he served in the US Army and later received a B.A. from Stetson University and a M.Div. from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. He was a teacher at both Sacred Heart Catholic School, New Smyrna Beach and at Southwestern Middle School, Deland for many years.
“Senior” was blessed with a beautiful voice and a sharp mind. He loved classical music, reading, magnolia trees, dogs, track & field, soccer, auto racing and his family. His greatest comfort in life was his faith in Jesus Christ. He is survived by his brothers Robert and Charles, daughter Elizabeth Beauchamp and sons Jack, David, Brent and their families.
“For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.” 1 Corinthians 13:12

Prayers and thoughts are with all of you in this time of change. We in our family recently lost our Patriarch and father and it leaves a hole to be sure. But I do know that the memories that are built in a lifetime are never forgotten and in fact become stronger and more enjoyable over time. Always carry that with you as it helps in the journey that we are all on. God Bless you all.

I miss you, but I'm glad you're at peace. Every time I sit around a campfire, listen to classical music, or hear a marching band, I'll smile for all of the fun we had.
Love,
Your Gal
