He was born August 28, 1960 in Geneva, PA, a son of the late Basil D. Brown and Shirley (Kapala) Brown of Ashtabula.
Dean graduated from St. John’s Catholic High School in Ashtabula in 1978. Following high school he lived in Florida for several years returning to the area in 1989. He was a Machine Operator by trade and currently employed at Swagelok in Solon OH, for over the past twenty years.
He was a long time member of the Federated Church of East Springfield, loved riding his Harley Davidson and attending “Roar on the Shore” every year.
