 NAME, SPOUSE'S NAME, ADDRESS, NUMBER OF CHILDREN, GRANDCHILDREN: GEORGE HOWARD DEAN: 1506 Frontier Street Longmont,CO 80501 C303) 776-7626 My Bride of 45 years, Joyce Palmer Dean, passed away January 11, 1992. We have two daughters. Debbie lives with her husband, Dennis Stoner in Big Sky, Montana. Denise lives in Lake Havasu City, AZ with her husband, Dr. Tom Powers, and their three DARLING daughters, Kristina 5 yrs), Katie 3 yrs) and'Kimberly 1 yr). It will be a few years before the great grandchildren come along. MILITARY SERVICE AND EXPERIENCES: I went into the Navy on May 23rd, immediately after graduation. Went to Great Lakes for training, and was shipped out to Pearl Harbor and assigned to the USS Pensacola (CA24) in July. The Pennsy earned 13 major battle stars during the war, six during the time I was aboard. My first battle was in August when I turned 18. In May of '44 I entered V12 School in Missouri. I was there for a year, and then in ROTC at the University of Michigan. With the war over, I was discharged on 3-17-46. One week of freedom...then I married Joyce on 3-24-46. It was the best day of my life! EDUCATION, VOCATION, PROFESSION - FROM GRADUATION TO PRESENT: High School graduate, 2 years of college. Shortly after our wedding, we moved to Loveland, Colorado where I was hired by the J.C. Penney Co. I worked for Penney's for 18 years, training in Loveland, Ft. Collins, Longmont and Greeley, and managing the store in Steamboat Springs, CO. In 1964, we defected from Penney's and started our own store in Longmont. We eventurally incorporated and grew to three womens clothing and linen stores. We retired when a shopping mall was to be built on the edge of town. We had over 20 great years on Main Street of Longmont. During my retirement I have worked part time in fine jewelry and shoe sales, until my very recent second retirement. I am now a professional traveler! EXTRACURRICULAR AND ORGANIZATIONAL ACTIVITIES, HOBBIES, AVOCATION: Member of Lions Club International in Greeley, Steamboat Springs and Longmont. Elected District 6N Governor in 1969 and Colorado State Council Chariman in 1970. We attended International Conventions in Toronto, Tokyo, Atlantic City, Las Vegas, and Dallas. We enjoyed all of our Lions activities. In addition, Joyce ? I both served on Chamber of Commerce committees and were members of Central Presbyterian Church and PTA. I was on the school board in Steamboat Springs and served as Rainbow Dad for seven terms. Joyce was a life member of Beta Sigma Phi. Mercy, we’ve stayed busy! WORDS OF WISDOM : Live every day to its fullest, and have fun doing it! I have been very fortunate in my lifetime to have come through the drought and hard times we all had as children and to have survived WWII. I believe we all had good times during those years even if we didn't know it then! Then I had 45 great years with Joyce. She was diagnosed as having Leukemia in February of 1990 and spent many days in hospitals, but when in remission she had good days. I thank God for her life here with us, and also for his most precious gift of death when all else failed, as now there is no more suffering.
