I met Dean in 1981, when I moved to Hanna from Ontario. My mother told me that is where Dean lived and from whom we bought our first Arabian stallion in 1962, Bar DR Ragal. What a small world. I will never forget the first time I met Dean, I went to her farm, knocked on her door, told her who I was and she slammed the door in my face, I continue to laugh to this day. Next day I went to the National restaurant in Hanna where Russ and Dean were known to frequent. We finally got to know each other. I showed Sir Simon ( her little bay stallion) for a few years, travelling all over Alberta and Saskatchewan, . I have some many fond memories of Russ and Dean. May you rest in peace, Dean.
