Mick was a wonderful husband to Louise and father to his two children, Lily and Harry. He was diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma multiforme in December 2014 after suffering a couple of big seizures. While the tumour remained stable for some months following chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment, tragically Mick suffered a bleed on the brain. He passed away soon after surgery in August 2016 leaving his family and close friends, known as The Lads, heart-broken. They have since set up The Micky Deans Trust to raise vital funds for research for a cure, sadly too late for Mick, and to ensure that Mick’s name is never forgotten.
