1. Dean's basement playing Mario Kart on the Super Nintendo after middle school was out. This was the first time i played a video game and completely dominated someone else, even though i had never played before. An addiction was born.
2. Dean has a great nickname. The Asian Sensation, or Eggroll Express.
3. Dean was amazing at many facets of the game of basketball. His lasting memory on the court will be coming up on a fast break and within seconds of getting a pass running behind the 3 point line and launching the Trifecta. It was just like Pippen would do on a fast break. Money.
4. We were sitting in the Hansens basement Ramming around one night, when Nate came down to tell us that Dean was in an accident and everything got silent(I believe this is how it happened. i could be wrong). I remember praying for him at school that semester. Seeing him come home after that was heart warming, cause you have to love dean.
5. Money..... He had a 2 year period after he saw the movie Swingers where everything was money. money this. money that. money money money. Vince Vaughn was proud.
This picture is computer generated of Caleb's twin sister, or what she would have looked like if he hadn't eaten her in the womb.... 
6. Going to Deans younger brothers freshman basketball games and screaming at Mr Mielke to play him. Whenever he got in he would light up the 3 point line and make Dean proud.
7. Telling me at a Middle School Assembly that a certain younger girl liked me and wanted me to ask her out. I never did. Eric says to this day i would have never left Zeeland if i took the wrong fork in that road.
8. The greatest Dean story ever.... The summer of whenever Eric lost his virginity and last name to Amy. Jodi, Luke, Heath, Dean and I set out on a seemingly harmless trip to Nebraska...... 
some stories can't be shared. Thats what the little man says.

I just want to say I really enjoyed having a locker next to Dean for seven years because our locker area would always smell good like cologne and eggrolls.
Thanks Dean.
Also, was your long lost Edwin Mccain date named ... wait for it ... RYLEEN? If that was her name I am going to be so happy.
Eric,
I am glad I could make your day but I am not sure if cologne and eggrolls would smell good together. =)
Jon - Thank you for those kind words. lol =)
Also, it has been way to long since we all have been together. We need to plan a trip. Thoughts?
Keith was the best 3 point shooter on that team by far. I think I shot only 3 the entire year, beating my passing mark of just 2 for the year.
jon, your kid has fred dukes legs. If I see you on the next Maury episode "my kid won't stop eating" I will be proud.
