Memorial Services for Edwin Howard
Dean, 77, of Longview, Texas will be held at 2:00 PM, Wednesday, September 19,

Howard passed away
peacefully at his home on September 17, 2018. He was born June 21, 1941 in
Tallulah, Louisiana to Edwin and Mildred Dean.
Howard worked as
Boiler Maker out of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Howard worked in construction most
of his career. He was a leader not a follower. He worked as superintendent,
foreman, inspector, safety consultant and was well respected by his colleagues
and employers. To say he was a hard worker would be an understatement. He began
working at a very young age and dedicated his life to providing for his family.
This could be where he gained his passion for beekeeping and enjoyed watching
them work. He spent countless hours talking about his bees to anyone interested
in hearing his thoughts on them.
He was preceded in
death by his parents, Edwin and Mildred Dean, brother, Anthony Dean, sister,
Faye Alsobrook, daughter, Angela Caston,
and grandson, Jeffery Splawn.
He is survived by his
wife, Dorothy Dean of Longview, children Dwayne and Tammy Dean of Mansfield,
Texas, Steven and Rachael Dean of Red Oak, Texas, Tosha
and Ross Rucker of Boerne, Texas, Candice Dean of Frankford, Kentucky, Cherilyn Caraway of Longbranch,
Texas, Sherri and Billy Pack of Kilgore, Texas, Laquitta
and Brian Franklin of Livingston, Texas and James and Melissa Hawthorne of
Kilgore, Texas. As well as, 17 grandchildren and 22 great grandchildren;
brother, Homer and Betty Dean of Bossier City, Louisiana, sisters, Jeanette and
Santo Sansone of Atlanta, Georgia, Marolyn Lord of Vicksburg, Mississippi, Beverly and Joe
Sims of St. Francisville, Louisiana, Sylvia Dean of
Stanton, Texas, and numerous nieces, nephews, other family members and friends.
