QUOTE FROM THE ARTICLE:“I’m not a hero, nor did I save anyone,” Dean insisted, as he recalled the incidents.“Jesus Christ saved us a long time ago. I guess in this situation, I was ‘a fisher of men’ that helped them out of a bad situation. The real heroes are the men and women in law enforcement, the military and fire department who protect us every day.”

You have every right to be proud of your Uncle. I am proud of him and I do not even know him. As a former law enforcement officer I appreciate Mr. Dean even more. Even after performing these heroic feats Mr. Dean still does not consider himself a hero. His humility and love of his fellow man shines through like a beacon in the night. This man sets the example of a life and deeds in life for others to follow but which many, including me fall short. When you see your Uncle please tell him I consider him a hero beyond any shadow of doubt.
