Dean was well known for her 20 years of service at Day Motors/Peterbilt of McComb. She also worked as a personal secretary to Mr. Charles Day during her time there. She was "Big Mama" to all of her co-workers who viewed her as the office nurse, counselor, chef, and detective. She was always well dressed and her hair was going to be fixed and in place.

She is survived by two daughters, Renae Williams (Jim) and Ann Sharp (Eldridge); one son, Mark Golmon (Anita); one sister, Janice Hollis (Larry); one brother, Terry Oliver (Pat); one sister-in-law,  Dodie Oliver; six grandchildren, Michelle Leblanc, Bridgette Smith, Jacob Golmon (Chelsea), Morgan Golmon, Logan Sharp, and Tanner Sharp; eight great grandchildren; longtime friend, Tommy Nylin; honorary grandchildren, Travis Ann Nylin, Taylor Ann Nylin, James Lee Westbrook, as well as their children; and a host of nieces, nephews, family, and friends.
