Dean Wittenbach—in memoriam

  Many of you will remember Dean, our long-time route serviceman originally hired by my Dad (Charles Palen) back in the late “Curtiss” days, transitioning to Tri-State Breeders and Landmark Genetics, then Semex USA, then Taurus-Service.    Retiring in 2017, he had lived quietly with wife Julie outside Ionia.    Dean dealt with major circulation issues since then, and passed away after a heart attack late December. 
He was 72 years old.
