Helen Stacey says:
Don’t know where to start! Dennis made everyone feel important and loved. He said what he meant and meant what he said! No other way! Along with all these attributes Dennis had a great sense of humor and “went overboard” to make everyone feel important and comfortable.
Phyllis and Dennis! They complimented each other! Such a great team for 52 years!
Sending my love to Dennis’ immediate family and his huge extended family! I know you are greatly missed and know you are now resting in the peace you more than deserved! You were a great warrior in dealing with the serious health issues you endured for so long!
Gone but never forgotten! Rest In Peace dear Dennis. Our love accompanies you on your final journey!
Nikki Thomson says:
Uncle Denny,
Our world will be a stranger place without you in it. You brought much love and laughter to our gatherings, and they just won’t be the same without you there. You will be greatly missed!
On the other hand, the world you have entered-heaven, the very presence of God, where you walk streets of gold, where there is no more sadness or tears, no more sin and no more suffering…in this I rejoice for you! And I will see you there someday, when all the days ordained for me are complete and Christ calls me home. Until then…
