Waylon Gene Dean
Waylon Gene Dean unexpectedly passed away November 26, 2025, in Port Arthur, Texas. He was born on January 10, 2024, to Brian and Samantha Dean.
At only 22 months, Waylon had quite the personality. He always had a smile on his face and a cup of milk in his hand. Though his life was short, he left a lasting impression on all who knew him.
Those left to cherish his memory are his parents Brian and Samantha Dean, his siblings Katie, Colby, Bailey, Charles, and sister on the way Abigail. His grandparents Susan Tayor, Jerry Dean (Betty), and Ricky and Ruby Calvert, aunts and uncles Tammy (Chris), Casey (Billy), Rachael (Josh), Jermey (Stacy), Stephanie (Bruce), and Ricki (Brice). He also leaves behind a host of cousins who will forever miss their playmate.
He was proceeded in death by his great grandparents Bob and Jean Underwood, Elvira Gaona, Delbert Gene Calvert, and Jerry and Ruby Lyday, as well as his aunt Bobby Jo (Peanut) Dean.
We would like to express our gratitude to the first responders, as well as the staff at the Medical Center of Southeast Texas ER for their compassion and tireless efforts in taking care of our boy.

Samantha & Brian I was/am devastated to hear about Waylon. I can not imagine what you and the rest of the family is going through. I miss hearing him every morning walking in my room saying CiCi over and over then laughing at me when I say I’m not CiCi.
This isn’t saying good bye lil buddy, its saying I’ll be seeing you again.
Love You Bunches 💙😘
