During these uncertain times we have seen how our lives can change profoundly in the blink of an eye.  No one seems to be immune.  This is true for Dean and Amy Otteson.  On July 25, Dean was feeling unwell and sought medical attention that led to two cardiac surgeries and stents being placed.  Thankfully, from a health perspective, the procedures were lifesaving, and Dean is recovering well under Amy’s watchful eye.  Unfortunately, the unexpected costs of these unforeseen procedures are causing a financial hardship for the Otteson Family and there is no medical insurance to help cover the increasing financial burden.  We are starting this Go Fund Me page for Dean and Amy to ask friends and family for support to assist them as they weather this challenge and recover from these unexpected events.  Any level of contribution would be greatly appreciated and know your contribution will be met with heartfelt thanks.  Please also help spread the word about this page.    

Dean and Amy currently reside in North Saint Paul and are living in and remodeling their 9th home.   They have two grown daughters and two grandsons. 

Dean has been successfully self employed remodeling homes for over 40 years.  He is also a great friend who helps friends and family with their home projects.

Amy is an artist who has owned her own business as well, creating hand painted fabrics and just recently working  as an upholsterer.  She worked as an art teacher for over 24 years while raising their children.
