33 Years Later He Hangs Up The Scissors

He was known as " The Freak " and Dean Grywacheski is leaving his post in CFB Shilo. After 33 years he was always known as " Dean the Barber " and he has now decided to call it a day. BDNMB.CA - After 33 years of driving to Shilo day in and day out what would be the low point and the highlight of the job Dean -  I think that these two things actually work in conjunction with each other -- the highs are the people and friends and my staff that i have been so privileged to meet -- while they are posted in Shilo I get to be  a part of the their family , so when they leave to another post that is always a hard thing . Then sometimes out of the blue they show back up in the shop to say hi , and " holy you are still here" BDNMB.CA - What is the biggest tip you would have got .......I was told Joe McDonald was a big tipper Dean - Lol , he ( Joe ) is a great guy for sure and was always such a wonderful  supporter of the shop! I do remember one gentleman coming in once we were allowed to reopen open after Covid and left me $100.00 , he said " real glad you were able to hang on " BDNMB.CA - Your staff will stay on and you will now move to a new venture can you describe what you will be doing next Dean - Yes , the staff is staying on and the shop will remain open . For me , I have accepted a position with ACC  and am really looking forward to this new chapter ...it's been 33 years lol! BDNMB.CA - Passion is a big part of owning a business and after 33 years you would lose some of that passion for sure. Dean -  33 years is a long time , but it has been filled with so much joy which kept the passion for what i did and for meeting people at the forefront ! Starting  with the German soldiers and their families , the 2 PPCLI moving from Winnipeg to Shilo to make a new home base for themselves and all of the people from East to West that I have had the pleasure to get to know has been an experience beyond anything I could have dreamed of !! BDNMB.CA - For many of us we met you working back in the day at the Unwinder when you were a bartender ( Victoria Inn ) so how did you get the nickname THE FREAK Dean -  Oh man ... now that a long time ago .....as i was working at the Shilo Barber Shop I took on another job at the Underwinder /Yaks .... I always just called people 'Hey Freak ' to get their attention , so people started saying back and it just kinda stuck i guess . Thanks for taking the time to do an article on me , appreciate it ! "Dean the Barber "
