He grew up in Arab, Alabama, and lived his married life in Texas. Dean worked for Parkland Hospital for 26 years, retiring in 2015. After retiring, Dean spent time with his wife and family.
Dean met the love of his life, Gail Phillips, in 1964 and married in April of 1966. They celebrated their 55th anniversary this year. Together they had three children: Kerry Phillips, wife Wimberly, Kimberly Phillips, and Kevin Phillips, wife April.
