In loving Memory of Harley Dean. Harley Dean was born Aug. 12, 1908; departed this life Oct. 14, 1946. He was born in Monroe Co. and has always made it his home. Harley was a person who won friends wherever he went. There is a vacancy in his home and community that can never be filled, for his cheerful smile is gone; but he will always be remembered by all his neighbors and friends.

Dean; two brothers, Vincent of Vonore, and Johnnie of Knoxville; four sisters, Mrs. Grant Moser and Mrs. Roy Gentry of Vonore, Mrs. Johnnie Kirkland of Ohio, and a host of other relatives and friends.
Flower girls were Thelma Shell, Reynelda Gentry, Alma Tallent, Mrs. Opal Burchfield, Mrs. Margie Williams, Kathleen Bright, Shirley Shell, Linnie Belle West, Bobby Burchfield and Mrs. Jerry Millsaps.
Pallbearers were Harrison Saffles, Dock Gray, Charlie West, Marcus Gentry, Willie Kirkland, and Jerry Millsaps
