I was saddened to hear of Danny's death. We were roomates in college. Against my better judgement I let Matt talk me into rooming with a roundheaded beanpole of a kid, whose smile was just a little bigger on his face than it should have been. It wasn't so bad really, he was gone most of the time. His weekend streched from Thursday to Tuesday so he could do the weekend show on WBRH. He was after all the "Dean of Rock." He broke my stuff, used my toothpaste, and blessed my life. Funny how you can feel an immovable anger and give irresistable grace all at the same time, but this is the kind of person that Danny was, he made you respond to an energy he generated that was all his own. We both loved Jesus, the great white north, sleeping in, and skipping class. I have forgotten many I knew at L.C., I can't even remember the name of the guy who moved in after Danny left mid-semester (homesick) but I will always remember the times, the adventures and the misadventures I had with Danny Dean, a truly good man.
