Dean Bargen

Deano, To quote Dan Bummer when I told him of your passing, and I will take this out of context, we're losing all the good ones. Dean Bargen, the 1st hippie long hair that I can remember going to work at the Billings PO. And Wayne Bramble(Bolly) never let you forget it. It was great to see you after your return from Texas. You did remarkable things after became sober. Just a funny memory; Kautsky and I were trying to determine the name of the group that was singing a certain song and you just raised your middle finger and we guessed the group name immediately. Great times on the Ord Belt, loading and unloading trucks and so on. Bolly dressed all in red for the Christmas season. BTW, tell him hi from all of us still upright. You will be missed but as you can tell, we have out memories,

Dean was an old friend from 510 Cook days. He got sober and never lost site of the gift he'd been given in sobriety. He was also a pretty darn good carpenter. Blessings to Connie and all others grieving his loss. Dean was one of the good ones.

Our Dean was a good friend! Nick and I had so many great times with he and Connie! We will miss him so much!
