Yes, they were close friends until Dean died in 1995. Although they had had a brief falling out in 1988 when Dean dropped out of the Together Again tour with Frank and Sammy, there were no long-lasting hard feelings. Both Frank and Dean, as well as the people closest to them, have denied that there was any feud and confirmed that they remained friends. Sinatra, although himself in failing health, would always visit Dean for his birthday, and would phone him frequently to reminisce about the old times, right up to the day before Dean passed away.
