Dennis was a rare friend, one of whom I loved before I physically met him. Only meeting him just a few times, before his ascension to The Kingdom Of Heaven, I felt like I had known Dennis all my life. He was an angel on earth and now evolving with The Celestial Musicians in that Kingdom Of Heaven. My prayers and condolences to family, friends and our society, for losing an awesome man and personality! I love you Dennis

The first time I met Dennis he gave me that big loving hug, like we had been friends for ever. Now, part of me feels sorrow for all of us, loosing such a great person and spirit. But most of me rejoices, knowing he is among the Ascending Sons of God, evolving through the universes with Jesus. Heaven shines upon us and the personality that is Dennis, will shine upon us for eternity...Love You Dennis, see you in heaven...

My heart aches with the pain of the shock of the passing of Dennis. He has taken a piece of my heart, and my life, with him.
To his family - May God bring you comfort in this horribly sad time. And may you find joy in all the wonderful memories you share of him. Dennis will surely be missed by all the people whose lives he touched...
Love to you all,

To The Family,
I am sorry to hear about your loved one. I graduated with Dennis from South High and he attended our last reunion he was full of laughter and fun. He told us he would not miss another one but God had other plans for him. My prayers are with each one of you. May God bless and keep you during this difficult time.

The thing I'll remember most about Dennis is how funny he was- he found humor in every situation. I remember one especially scary time at our house. He was helping Danny hang drywall (on a ceiling), and Jared was helping, too. Danny told Dennis to prop up the heavy drywall with a 2x4, and keep it tight. Dennis started talking and was not paying attention, and out came the 2x4, and down came the drywall! Did I mention they were at the top of the stairs? Dennis & Jared tumbled down my uncarpeted stairs, landing at the bottom. I ran over to them and said, "Are you alright?" To which Dennis replied (looking up at the ceiling) "Yeah, I just wanted to see what it looked like from down here"
