    I feel for Dean Martin Sr. I lost my only child, my son, at age 30 due to suicide on the 4th of July 2011. I can identify with the candle without a flame. For 13 years I have just been going through the motions. I am starting to get adjusted to the loss, but I am still not ready to fully face it. It hurts as if someone is laying a concrete block on my heart. I am alive today only because of my family and friends who have allowed me to grieve in my own way, picking up the slack when I fell behind mentally, holding my heart when I would slip into a sudden hole of dispair. Hearing this tragic story helped me a little in seeing myself in a "mirror" and knowing what I have gone through, I am not alone in the experience.

      I am so sorry for your loss. My sister lost her son 1 month before your son passed in 2011. His passing was also due to suicide at the age of 18, one week after his high school graduation. I'm familiar with the incredible challenges that suicide survivors are faced with, and I'm so terribly sorry for anyone who finds themselves on this journey of finding some semblance of peace within. May you have moments of beautiful memories and lasting images of your son along your winding path, and know that your son is often closer than you may think! My sincere condolences!

    I don’t usually admire celebrities. I expected not to like Dean Martin Jr. as well. I met him when he was on the tennis tour. I was working at a tournament. Many athletes with huge egos were on display. They may have outshone his tennis skills but not his multi talented life, let alone his family connections.
    Dean surprised me by being exceedingly friendly. I never saw an ego on him. I left the tournament reveling at how down to earth someone in his shoes had been. It really surprised me. I’ll never forget that.

      You know, if you read his sister's book, Deana Martin, "Memories are made of this." Dean Sr. always believed in treating people with respect, especially his fans. I think he probably taught that to his children. God bless him.

    I was a mission pilot for Civil Air Patrol in California when Captain Martin and his RIO went down. I won't go into details as to how the accident happened, but my memory tells me that he was following radar vectors at night in poor weather. Ground control sent him toward the San Gabriel Mountains setting him up for sequencing for landing. Someone forgot about him and failed to turn him back toward the runway. He never saw the mountain. We searched for him the next day and it didn't take long for someone to find him. He was found where he disappeared off radar. That was one of the hardest air searches I ever flew.

    A friend of mine went to UPT with Deano. He was a totally normal guy, never asking for any "star" breaks. He was just there to get his training and move on to his CANG F-4 gig. Expecting that he was a spoiled celebrity kid, when it came time to go cross country in the T-38, few wanted to go with Deano. The one who stepped up was met in Vegas when they landed by two bikini clad limo babes who drove them to Dean's hotel where the two pilots were the celebrities of the night. After that, EVERYBODY wanted to go cross country with Deano. Sad he was lost so soon. He had very little experience upon which to draw upon at that point. Flying is an incredibly unforgiving vocation to even the smallest of mistakes. After 30 years of military and airline experience, when I watch stories like Deano's, I think, "There but for the grace of God, go I."

I just loved Deans voice and for every xmas my whole life his xmas CDs were played on xmas day. I had no idea his son died and no idea he even had a son who also sang. So tragic for him to have lost him. Now I know why he was sometimes drunk with a glass of scotch in his hand mostly, which I did not understand through those years, which also included watching all his and Jerry Lewis movies where in later episodes he seemed quite intoxicated.😢

    I would like to share with your readers some additional details on the death of Dino Jr., if I may.
    I spent an entire afternoon with the psychic Dean brought in to find his favorite son, and his name was Peter Hurkos. At the time Peter was acknowledged as the greatest psychic in the world and when Dino's jet went missing, Dean contacted him immediately to find out where it was because no one could find the wreckage of his aircraft. Peter was what is called a "psychometrist," which means, he has to actually touch something that belonged to the person you are searching for, so he told Dean to bring his son's flight suit to his home. When he got there, Dean placed the beloved garment in Peter's outstretched arms, and the moment he did, Peter felt "sick to his stomach," experiencing the actual moment of someone's terror when they know they're going to die. That's when he knew that Dino would not be returning, sadly adding, "They won't even find enough to bury."
    Two weeks later, a friend of mine who volunteers for the California Search and Rescue Team was called to search the exact part of the San Gabriel Mountains where Peter told them they would find the plane, and it lead them directly to it. Because the fighter jet was carrying ordinance (high explosives) at the time, according to my friend, *"they didn't even find enough to bury,"* which mirrored Peter's prediction, perfectly. No where was this fact printed anywhere, only relayed directly to me through Peter's exact words, so when my friend described the crash scene like this, it was chilling.
    Oddly enough, afterward I asked Peter for a quick reading, and he asked to hold my car keys. He said, "There's something wrong with your car's transmission." I laughed and told him that he was wrong, that my 1976 Chevy Monte Carlo "was still brand-new." Six months later as I was driving home, the entire transmission of my car fell apart and it couldn't even be repaired. I never doubted Peter's predictions again.

      You're quite welcome. The story was so amazing even I sometimes find it hard to believe. I was actually hired to photograph an actor that Peter's wife was representing, and he just came along for the ride. When I saw his license plate that read, "HURKOS," I asked him if he'd ever heard of Peter Hurkos, and when he said that he was the same, I nearly fell over, I'd heard so much about him. He was a very nice gentleman, and was also responsible for finding the Charles Manson gang and even the Boston Strangler.

    I remember hearing about this. It truely saddened me. It looked Dean Martin himself aged 100 years overnight. I don't consider myself a psychic but sometimes I get vibrations and images when I touch something or someone! My most startling reaction was when touched a front page picture of OJ Simpson. I eas going to work at that time and would walk to the local newstand to pick up The Daily News as routine. I walked into the store . The newspaper rack was there by the door. I put my right hand on the newspaper and instantly I felt intense cold shoot up my right arm and spread across my chest. It felt as though my heart was freezing and I was starting to gasp! I quickly pulled my hand away and I was fine. I stayed about 2 minutes to pull myself together and walked out. I didn't buy the newspaper THAT day! This ocurred during the trial. As I said I don't consider myself nor call myself psychic but sometimes, just sometimes...........😢😢😢

      I was watching Sloan Bella the day before and the days after her son was run off the road.
      Sloan is a psychic, so her and a friend went looking for the truth of what happened.
      The police in California wouldn't let her go close to him, yet a photographer was right beside him.
      He was forced off the highway and ran into a mailbox. I think it was very quick. Cut an artery in his leg.
      She was numb for a long time. She's so courageous. Keith got her RUclips going just before it happened. It's almost like he knew. 😢

    I grew up in LA and was 12 when Dino, Desi & Billy first hit. One of the teenage fan mags printed their addresses and my Mom agreed to drive us to Beverly Hills. We didn't get past the maids who answered the doors at Dino & Desi's homes, but we actually met Billy. For a 12 year old, that was heaven!

    His son's death basically killed Dean, Sr. He didn't want to live anymore when that happened and became more or less a recluse.
    Fun fact about Dino, Desi & Billy: Carl Wilson of the Beach Boys was married to sisters of Billy Hinsche (first wife Annie) and Dean Paul Martin (second wife Gina).

    Having "all" the things everyone thinks is important in life is NO guarantee of your destiny. LIFE can be cruel to everyone and anyone. Dean was never the same after the loss of his son. He didn't care about living anymore. It's too much for a parent to lose a child, at any age.

    Oh! I had such a crush on Dino Jr.!!! I’m 2 years younger than he & a friend would get those Teen rags/tabloids with Dino, Desi & Billy interviews.
    Then I had 2 brothers drop out of school to play tennis on the Pro circuit to see how far they could go. One brother was to play a match against him. If was in Florida. He knew ow much I was crazy about Dino. I was nervous about him sounding dorky about having a sister that had a crush on him (like millions!). But Dean defaulted!!! No show. So close!!
    One year, flipping channels I come across this weird TV show & I’m staring at this actor thinking,”Is that who I think it is?” I had to wait until the credits to be sure. Yes! That “Misfits of Weird Science” show & it was him!! I knew by now (& I knew when it happened) that he had been married a couple times to the most famous women at the time. So there wasn’t any hoping anymore.
    But then the tragic accident happened. Heartbreaking!!! Awful, awful.
    Now I’m out now living in Los Angeles & was working at Bloomingdale’s & in walks Dino’s mother, Jeanne, & her assistant. They were shopping. I just couldn’t bring myself to tell her about my crush on her son. Too painful, I felt.
    But those are my “6-degrees of separation” I had with Dean Paul Martin, Jr.
    I understand he’s buried in the Veterans Cemetery near UCLA.

    Wow...HOW Ironic because I was jus thinking about Mr Martins Son the other day and How Sad this was. Maybe God was Talking to me because I've been going through it lately with my Dad Too. But I feel so sad for him and Mr Martin and family. Im sure his remaining family members still Hurt for him. But, difficult not to feel envious of the guy because i was never successful at anything in life. Unlike Paul, who was successful at Everything. I can still relate to Mr Martin's Quote About his Son which Might as well be about me as well, "He just doesn't know what he wants to be." I always had the same problem but for/from a different reason! In that, Paul was far more Intelligent and an Over Achiever then I am or ever could be. I was of Average to Lower then average Intelligence, so becoming anything in life, including anything athletic or musical was always virtually impossible (Thanks God!). But RIP to PAul and Mr Martin. You both will always be missed. I just Pray that Mr Martin became a Believer and that a realization soon came over him, that he would soon see his Son in Heaven someday soon.

    For all the family connections and industry push Dino desi and Billy didn’t sell a huge number of records and their music was generic rather than memorable. The boys had varying degrees of musical talent but only bill hinshe was really interested in putting in the hard work to progress artistically. The other two were more interested in in the lifestyle music afforded them. They were celebrities fist and musicians second. Billy went on to play.for The Beach Boys. Desi was an excellent drummer. And dean paul kind of drifted. He truly excelled at piloting but it took his life filled with so much promise

    What a beautiful, talented man-barely! All he packed into it. Trippy about both psychics too no? And Sinatra’s Mom! My Grammy’s Uncle was his G-dfather! She never said ish about it either-until I was moving to Hoboken! She also neglected to mention that as a baby she took me to the mall w/Betty Ford! Haha! I was like “You read me the Tv Guide aloud but neglect to tell me ish like this?! I mean at like 30yo?! She slays me. Oh+how she met Norman Rockwell. Me: “Omg really where?!” Her: “His studio.” End of story. Like “Care to elaborate on that?!” No actually she never did. Maybe that’s why I work in the fashion industry+deal w/A-listers all day every day+it couldn't phase me in the least. Find me like a G-lister+I am beyond thrilled. The more corny+obscure the better! And anyone that knows me can tell you, I just attract these randoms+weirdness ensues. Like the time I was out on my bday w/my b-day twin+wound up getting chased across B’way by “Carrot Top”+his 2friends. I mean I did do a little sidewalk showtune karaoke and dance but that was it. 2 more times they saw me+were yelling my name across Times Sq! SO bizarre. Those “browz” are str8 up Sharpie yo. Like they do have other colors…that’s all I’m saying.
