Wyman P. Dean was born June 7, 1935, in Climax, GA, the son of Ernest & Evie Mobley Dean. He was a graduate of Mt. Pleasant High School. Wyman retired from Englehard as a pollution control supervisor. He was a member of Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church.

Wyman was a down-to-earth man who loved the family farm. He took it upon himself to keep the family stocked with peanuts and pecans. "Bud" had quite a sense of humor which probably helped keep him out of trouble with his siblings. (He enjoyed spoiling his nieces & nephews with ice cream.) The Georgia Bulldogs, hunting and fishing filled his time when he wasn't on a tractor or walking through his pecan orchard.

Survivors include his sister, Daisy Cox, and a large extended family. In addition to his parents, Wyman was preceded in death by his wives, Dorothy Love Dean and Hazel Hersey Dean; and his siblings, Ernest Samuel Dean, Jack Dean, Lois Robinson, Dollie Jones, Jonathan Nathaniel Dean, and Frances Hitt.
