Dean ... :(
I stopped by last week to see him at the house and chatted with him a bit. I offered a 'service' to him: that I could deliver a message of verse or merely an 'act' to anyone he felt needed it ...on his behalf (in kind regards or sheer malice.) We both laughed so hard
He did ponder a bit and mentioned a few things in jest
He only was able to converse for a few minutes and fell back asleep (heavy bouts of pain and morphine.) I left shortly after and made my way to a local Irish Pub. I was sitting at the outside bar (just me and the bartender) and a 'vintage' couple walked up and sat down beside me. Sure enough, they were from Maine! The husband asked if the food was good and I said yes and the special of the night was the raw bar and AYCE crablegs. They took my advice and were pleased. I mentioned a friend who was from Maine and always boasted about the quality of seafood in that area. They completely agreed.
15 minutes later ... Dean texted me! He apologized for falling asleep on me earlier. I said it's ok ... less culpability that way
I mentioned the couple from Maine sitting next to me and he said it was a small world. 
I'll share the remainder of our conversation to those I see in person and I'll try to do my best imitation of Dean (not exactly PG rated)
I miss him so much now ... and will much more as these days pass.

Thanks for sharing this.
Truly a one of a kind guy, got along great with him and enjoyed his company. Installed a Invida header on his S I think it was one of the first. What a PIA to do but enjoyed the time spent BSing
My deepest sympathies to his family....
