John Alexander “Alex” Dean, 78, of Moncton, passed
away on Saturday September 7, 2024 at The Moncton Hospital. Born in
Moncton, he was the son of the late Colin and Lil (Bachman)
Dean.
Alex and his wife Maureen were the owners of Harlequin
Fashions for 36 years. Prior to Harlequin, he worked in sales with
Atlantic Television (ATV) and Xerox. Alex was a graduate of Dalhousie
University with a Bachelor of Commerce in 1969.
He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Maureen (Mullane);
two children: Erin (Dean) MacPherson (Hector) and Colin Dean; two
grandchildren: Callum and Lily; as well as many extended family
members and friends.
Alex (Poppie) was an avid tennis player for many years at
CEPS athletic centre. With his sharp wit and humour, he would retell
many stories of his time in Banff National Park as a tour bus driver,
especially the story of meeting Colonel Sanders of KFC. He loved the
retail clothing business, making many friends along the way. He could
not get enough business news from CNN to help guide his investment
strategy and was a political enthusiast with many colourful
descriptions of what he thought was best. Maureen and Alex were
inseparable. They grew a family, a business, and a life together that
was full of love, humour, and laughs. He will be deeply
missed.
In accordance with his wishes, there will be no visitation
and no funeral service. In memory of Alex, a contribution to the
Friends of The Moncton Hospital Foundation or the Alzheimer Society
would be appreciated. Funeral arrangements are under the direction of
Frenette Funeral and Cremation Centre, Moncton
(506-858-1900).
