Denny,
I went to your funeral on Tuesday. I always knew in my heart that when that unfortunate time came, wherever I was in the world, I'd try my best to be there.
Your funeral was simple, wasn't flashy or long in words. It was just perfect to reflect the man you were. You were the most humble and reserved man I had ever met. You were gentle, sweet, caring, honest, funny and genuine. So many fond memories of working with you at C'ville bank. Oh the stories of life I would share with you. You heard of all my wild weekend adventures with college friends and drama to family stories to boyfriend troubles and all the while never judging me. You had to, you were usually working with me on the weekends or heard about it all on Monday mornings! Ha! You always lended a calm ear of understanding and respect.
You also helped train me with work stuff. Yeah I would be trained formally by the other ladies but you would be my go-to person to truly help figure some transactions out, my "second set of eyes" and help me understand what I needed to do. You had SO much patience with me and I was grateful for that.
So many work AND life lessons I learned by working there in that season of my life that I enjoyed more because you were there to talk with me through it all. I remember telling you the saying my Momo (grandma) would always say, "there's a lid for every pot". You thought that was just the most amazing thing, you had never heard that before and found it so amusing! Plus, I would always know to get you your ham salad sandwich and baby ruth candy bar for lunch at Gas Mart! I enjoyed of hearing about what you and Carolyn were up to as well. You were each other's sweetheart. So glad you had her in your life! She has been your special lady for many years and that makes my heart happy.
You were a creature of habit going to Pistol for breakfast or to Freeburg for your fish too!
I knew you were a friend I wanted to stay in contact with over the years. If I couldn't see you for lunch when I was back in town with "the gang", I'd try to see you at the bank. I was hoping to see you this past Christmas but your health had other plans. You were one of my dearest friends in the world and I will miss you so much.
I enjoyed your friendship immensely and will always appreciate you.
Denny was a sweet man we knew as always smiling and so pleasant, he had a good heart, and we know he will be sadly missed. Our sincerest sympathy to Carolyn and his family now as they mourn his loss. Know that you'll continue to be in prayers here ~
Carolyn we are so sorry for your loss. Denny was always around when we were younger fishing and traveling with our parents and playing games with Lisa and I. He was such a gentle kind soul. We loved him and he will always be missed
Carolyn , Very sorry to see of Denny's passing. Will keep you & your family in my prayers. Enjoyed seeing you two at RCGS. Midge
My sincere sympathy to you Carolyn. My daughter Cinnamon worked with Denny several years at the bank. She thought so much of him and he was a very good friend to her. Thinking of you and sending prayers. Sincerely, Ginger Fisher
