Long time Los Angeles Times Composing Room employee, Dean French, passed away on Wednesday, December 9th from COPE. Dean was a very jovial man and had friends from many different departments at the newspaper. And he would join the pressmen at Anthony's on First Street for a few beers, or the writers at the Redwood on Second Street.
An avid fan of the annual USC-UCLA football game, he mustered up enough strength to root his team on.
As per Dean's request, there will be no funeral service.
If you would like to send his wife a sympathy card, please let me know so I can supply her address.
