Dean was one of the most kind-hearted, fun-loving, and genuine people that our community had the privilege of knowing and loving. His warm hug, friendly personality, and love of laughter, gave so much joy to everyone that knew him. His enthusiasm for craft beer, his friends, and most importantly, his beautiful fiancée Alice, were special and radiant throughout everything he did.  
 
Dean’s positive presence will be deeply missed throughout this tight-knit Wilmington community and we have started this page in an effort to provide peace and comfort to his loved ones & fiancée as they make arrangements in his honor. We love Alice and can be alongside her in this way and in the coming days, weeks, months ahead, as we remember Dean and the incredible love that bonds them forever.

Sarah Cox, Alice's mother, will be serving as the beneficiary of the funds raised in an effort to help with service expenses on behalf of the family. Alice will then be the main beneficiary of all proceeds in Dean's honor, just as he would have wished.
