Dean Robert Tello, 56, of North Attleboro, MA passed peacefully with a sense of peace on Thursday, December 12, 2024, a day symbolizing spiritual awakening, at the Hope Health Hulitar Hospice Center in Providence, Rhode Island where he had been the previous four days. He was the loving and caring husband of Napatsawan “Palm” Muangjun to whom he was married on June 20, 2014.
Born in Medford, MA on February 22, 1968, he was a son of the late William Salvatore Tello and the late Katherine Phyllis (Alcaro) Tello. He spent his early years being raised in the North End of Boston and later moved to the Town of Easton where he was a graduate of Oliver Ames High School.
Dean was employed as a senior vice president of Bank of America having worked throughout the United States until his illness many years ago.
He treasured the times spent playing the guitar and will be remembered for his sense of humor, occasional sarcasm and love for engaging in conversation. However, his greatest accomplishment was being a terrific husband and caring and doting father to his beloved son, Jayden.
In addition to his wife of 10 years, he leaves his beloved son: Jayden William Tello, age 10 - a 5th grade student at the Falls Elementary School; his sister: Lisa Marie Lakin of Spring Hill, Florida and his nephew and God Child: Philip William Lakin stationed in Germany with the United States Army.
In addition to being predeceased by his parents, he was the brother of the late William John Tello.
