You could tell by Denny's visitation thar he was Pillar of God's church.He would always greet you when you entered Landmark Apostolic Church. He knew how to play the guitar and lead Sunday Morning service. All of this came from his heart. He had so much wisdom. I have known Sue and Denny for about 38 yrs and they are true believers of Gods word!!!!Love Your Christian Friend,Janny

Dear Sue and family,

When I learned of Dennis' passing, I stopped what I was doing and thought to myself that life is so short. My brief moment of sadness was followed by a tremendous confidence that Dennis is now absent from the body and present with our Lord. I used to drive over the road with Dennis to New York among other places and no matter how far from home I traveled, I always felt at home riding along side Dennis. Christian fellowship is sometimes hard to find in the workin' world, but I was blessed to spend some time with Dennis. I told my wife that it's not very often two grown men reading their bible in a hotel before bed. Dennis was a lot of fun to be around. I remember one time that he took an old plastic flower basket and made a carriage to hang our 2 liter bottle of soda off the mirror to keep it cold as we travled down the interstate. One important thing to remember is Dennis' was always smiling even when things didn't seem worth smiling about. I miss that time traveling with Dennis and talking about the news, the world, guitars, and religion. Dennis made quite an impression on me and was a fine example of Christian man and what it means to hold to your values. I'll miss him and I pray for your family in this time of loss. He sure was proud of his family.

Dennis was a wonderfully easy going guy. Jim went to school with him and enjoyed knowing him. Dennis was always in a good mood even at tax time and I want to thank you so much for your patronage. A more pleasant person will be hard to find. You have a lot of good memories to share with your children.

Denny and I went to school together from 204 through P'ville High School. He was always so friendly and his smile could melt your heart. I would like to extend my sympathy to his family in this loss.

Sue, Dana, Doug and familes. I can't tell you enough how sorry we are for your loss. Denny was such a wonderful person and I know you will all miss him terribly. We have such good memories of our old neighborhood and think of you guys often. I know with your faith this hardship will be made easier.

Sue, Doug, Dana and families:
Whenever I think of our old neighborhood, it was your Dad who gave many of us so many of our fondest memories. What an awesome man!! I'll never forget his uncanny ability to find things to do to entertain us and keep us out of trouble and I'll never forget his smile and laugh. Later in life, my husband got to know him through his job as a truck driver and also became very fond of him without even knowing he was the same man that I had spoke of in some of my childhood stories. Such a small world and a hint of just how Denny befriended everyone he met. You have all of our sympathy.
