Richard Bearden wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Tinderholm Family, My sincerest condolences on your loss. I first met Dewey many years ago when we were both young engineers at MTS. He was a very colorful character. Fun to know and work with. He was a good engineer who understood both the technical and the business aspects of our mission. I often sought his advice, as he had great wisdom and insight to share. Above all, I loved his sense of humor! And what a contagious laugh! May the Lord bless you in this time of grief. Rick Bearden”
