Dean was born June 24th 1990, a smiling happy content baby who grew into a smiling happy content and extremely brave unselfish teenager. He knew from the age of 10 that he had a heart condition and he could not participate in PE or sports at all. He also got tired quickly and would often have to slow down or take a rest.  However this did not change his fantastic caring attitude one little bit. He continued to work hard at school and looked forward to spending time with his school friends, always wanting to do his very best for himself and all who cared about him. He did worry at times about his heart condition as sometimes he would have chest pain. I would hug him and tell him to stay calm and breath steadily then he would feel better and relax. He knew his condition was life threatening which must of been so scarey yet he would never let this show and he continued to love life and lived it to the best he possibly could, making sure he had fun and everyone around him did too.
Dean was also quite the joker and liked to mess on with everyone. People immediately took to him as soon as they met him as his smile and kindness shone through and was written all over his face.
Dean enjoyed listening to music, watching dvds and playing computer games.He never missed an episode of Charmed & Friends.
                         
 He especially enjoyed baking and made the lushest choc cookies amongst a load of other things. His grandma Fairley loved him visiting on a Saturday & Dean would make rock buns. He could definately make some tasty dishes and often he would make our evening meal which I looked forward to.
Dean will be loved, missed and thought about eternally and remembered for his brave, kind, humerous happy nature.
We are certainly blessed to of had you in our lives Dean and we are all so proud of you.
We will be together again soon for eternity and you are still watching us and the way we are living our lives. It will never ever be the same until we are with you in your beautiful new world. In the meantime, have fun, dont change and we will do our best for you.

 Sending this kiss to you Dean with loads of love, hugs & xxx mam
