Robert Dean Redmon, affectionately known as Dean, departed this life on his 86th birthday, September 25, 2024. Born and raised in Webb City, MO, Robert made a lasting impression on everyone he met with his funny anecdotes, reliable character, and resilient spirit.
Robert was a man of many talents, but it was in the kitchen of Big R's Barbeque where he truly shone. His smart culinary skills and affinity for creating mouth-watering dishes were renowned throughout the county, earning him respect and admiration from both peers and patrons. He retired in 1997, but his legacy at Country Corner continues to live on. Yet, despite his professional accomplishments, what mattered most to Robert were his beloved dogs, Rudy, Charlie, and Molly.
Robert is survived by his son, Jeffrey (Cynthia) Redmon and Brett Redmon; sisters Rosemary Storm, Barbara Allen and Lana Graves. He was preceded in death by his parents, Chester & Mary Redmon; brothers Allen Redmon, Richard Redmon and Dale Redmon; sisters Mildred Fort, Alice Marie Storm, and Sue Redmon. In the words of Mark Twain, "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." Robert embodied this philosophy, never shying away from taking the first step, whether it be in his career or personal life. His humor, reliability, resilience, and intelligence left an indelible mark on all who knew him.
Services are under the direction of Simpson Funeral Home. The family encourages relatives and friends to visit www.simpsonfh.com to share photos and memories of Robert. As we remember Robert's life, let us celebrate his laughter, cherish his memory, and embody his resilience. His life was a testament to the notion that with a bit of humor, reliability, and a lot of resilience, one truly can make a difference.
