It is with great sadness we inform you that Radnor Hunt Huntsman John Dean passed away on Saturday January 16 due to complications from COVID-19. As the third generation of his family to carry the horn at Radnor Hunt, John was extremely proud to continue the Dean tradition. His uncanny sense of where Charlie might be lurking and his knack for breeding just the right mix of hound attributes, provided subscribers, guests, and car followers with countless hours of superb sport. A gregarious giant of a man, John innately knew how to make sure everyone had a good time. John is survived by his wife, Nancy, and children Jessica, Johnny and James. Johnny and James are both graduates of the MFHA’s Professional Development Program and are First Whips at the Piedmont and Radnor Hunts, respectively. They proudly carry on the family tradition as professional hunt staff. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Dean family.
