Dean began his career with NCC as a Combination Technician and steadily advanced through the organization, taking on roles as Outside Plant Supervisor, Operations Manager, Chief Operations Officer, and ultimately serving as Assistant General Manager at the time of his retirement. Throughout his distinguished career, Dean’s leadership and vision were instrumental in shaping NCC’s growth and innovation. He played a key role in the modernization of the cooperative’s infrastructure, including the complete rebuild of the coaxial plant in all towns served with cable TV, the consolidation of multiple headends into a centralized system, and the introduction of HD channels along with an expanded TV lineup. Under Dean’s direction, NCC completed several major network upgrades, led the construction of 23 towers, and successfully replaced all copper infrastructure with fiber across the entire service area—ensuring reliable, high-speed connectivity for the communities NCC serves. Dean leaves behind a legacy of dedication, innovation, and service. His contributions have had a lasting impact on NCC and will continue to benefit members for years to come. His last day at NCC was May 9th. Now retired, he plans to hunt, garden and travel with his wife, Ronda. He left us with one final bit of advice, “Don’t let your greatest strength also be a weakness.” We extend our heartfelt thanks and best wishes to Dean in his well-earned retirement.
