Condolences

The family of Dean Allen Sinnwell has received the following condolences.

I had the opportunity to get to know Dean when I worked at Veit. He would always be one of the first to help when you needed. When Dean would go to Winona for work, he made sure to pick us up some Hardee's on the way back. He would go to Roosters on some Friday afternoons after I left Veit. The stories and jokes he would come up were always hilarious. He was truly a good person and friend. Everyone needs a Dean in their life and he will be missed by many. My heart aches for his family and I am so sorry for your loss. 

Thinking of your family during this time of loss. Dean was a driver for us for a few years and was always a pleasant and dependable man. We were honored and blessed to know him. We offer you thoughts, prayers, and well wishes during this hard time in your life. Our deepest sympathies are with you and your family.

I grew up on 4th ave NE in Kasson with Dean. I was a little younger than him but have fond memories of running around the sales barn with Dean. I remember sitting on the fence and watching him wrestle the billy goats. He used to set me on his horse, Brownie, and let me ride her around the yard. He was very good to us younger kids. I last saw Dean about 10-15 years ago. He was driving for Veit and came into the building I was wiring and asked me to move my work van. I asked him his name cause he looked so familiar. We talked about the old days and all  the fun we had as kids. We had a lot of laughs. The neighborhood kids were always  congregating  at Sinnwell's field for a game of football, baseball, or kick the can at night. Dean remembered that all. My deepest condolences to all of you. I hope you know that Dean made a mark on our lives and we were very sad to hear of his loss. Many good memories. That is what I have. Thanks Dean! You were a part of the NE Kasson kids and will be forever!. RIP.

Deepest sympathies to all of you.  Dean was always such a social person.  Always willing to say hello and visit for a while!  He will be greatly missed!

Jan and family my heart breaks for the loss of your son, Dean. There can’t be anything more heartbreaking than to have to lay your child to rest. He is in Gods hand and will be taken care of. May he Rest In Peace 

I knew Dean when we attended elementary school together in Kasson, Dean would always make everyone laugh.  My condolences to the Sinnwell family.

So sorry to learn of Dean's passing.  Sending much love to all the family during this time.

I previously worked with Dean and he made me laugh and smile everyday by just being himself. He had a huge heart and I am sure he will be greatly missed by his co-workers, friends and family.


My thoughts and prayers go out to his fellow co-workers/friends and especially to his family. I am sorry for your loss.

I met Dean through mutual friends, we worked together on a benefit the last two years. He was always the first to offer his help, anything you need he would do it. Such a kind caring man. I didn't know him well but I know that he was a great man and he touched more lives than he could have imagined. 


Sending out prayers for his family, I am so sorry for your loss. 

Dean will be missed.  He was a friend I met through his work activities.  Dean was always kind, responsive, caring, and willing to take care of the little things which I greatly appreciated.  Words cannot express how sorry I am for the loss of Dean.  Dean and his family are in my prayers.
