My father, Robert Eugene (or Elmer) Dean, died July 1963 at Balboa Naval Hospital and was buried at Rosecrans National Cemetary when we lived in Spring Valley, but I can't seem to find any records of this. I know that my facts are straight on this, because he was allowed to come home from the hospital just long enough to celebrate my 13th birthday, then had to go back. Shortly thereafter, he went into intensive care and died either the 30th or 31st. If I can get his death records, I may be able to find out what city or county in Oklahoma he was born. If anyone can help me, I would appreciate it. Other info on him: his father was James Stewart Dean, also from Oklahoma (died Wichita, Kansas in 1957) and (I think his mothers side) we also had some other relatives in San Diego. Ray and Louise Hadley also had a home in Spring Valley. Uncle Ray died first and I know that Aunt Louise was still alive when I left the country in 1971. That was when I lost track of them. I would also appreciate any info on them.
