I didn't know Dean - my daughter told me the story of the missing - my husband and I launched our whaler that Sunday morning - we were on a mission to find the missing - after a few hours my husband made me realize that we needed to end our search as the winds from the previous day would mean the larger Coast Guard boats would need to search the ocean - my heart was heavy - I wanted to find the missing boaters -I didn't want to go home.... I'm so sorry for your loss - my prayers are with you.

As neighbors of Maryhelen's when she was growing up and while she and my son Stanley were classmates all the way through school, we feel the hurt being experienced by her and the family and friends in the loss of Dean, although we did not know him. May you be comforted by knowing so many people care and are extending expressions of sympathy. May God bless you all and help you through your grief.

To the Britt family we are so sorry for your loss. There are no words that can comfort you at a time like this. Although we did not know Dean very well, the times he came to our house he was very respectful. I was relieved when he would be there to help Cody work on his car. Dean seamed so confidant and ready to help. I know Cody thought a lot of him and that he will miss him. I hope you can find some comfort in knowing what a helpful and respectful young man he was.

Dean will truly be missed by many. My prayers are with the friends, family, and girlfriend. He would always start his car in the morning or some time during the day. You could always tell when it was him when he was coming home or leaving. He would always work hard at everything he set his mind to. When he drive by he would always have a smile on his face and wave and at the people he knew. No matter what he would always be there to help even if you where a stranger. There are many things that we all truly will miss this is not good bye this is I will see you again. Dean will be looking over us now protecting all of us. He will honestly and truly never be forgotten. He has touched the lives of many and he will always be there with us every were you go.

We were so saddened to hear about Dean. It was a pleasure having him to stay here in Nova Scotia four summers ago. Then he was a pleasant, polite sixteen year old. It sounds like he was growing into a fine young man.

Tim Cooley

Dearest Britt Family,
While the loss of a loved one is never easy, it is most certainly the hardest when they are taken from us too soon. There is no word for a parent who loses a child. A wife who loses a husband is called a widow. A husband who loses a wife is called a widower. A child who loses his parents is called an orphan. There is no word for a parent who loses a child. That's how awful the loss is. We offer our sincere condolence and deepest sympathy on your loss. May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and strangers and the comfort in knowing that your loss is felt by many, help you through this difficult time. I ask for God's blessings on you and your wonderful family. May you find the courage and strength to move forward in peace and confidence and in knowing that his was a life well-lived.
Yours In Peace,
Tim Cooley and Family
