Dewey was my dearest friend. We shared so many wonderful, fun, and happy times together. I dated his best friend, Hoyt, and the three of us spent a large part of our young lives together! I’m so happy to know he was surrounded by his family. He was always a loving and caring person. I look forward to seeing him in Heaven.
