Dear June: Ardele and I always loved being around Denny in the church and other events. His dry wit and charming nature was always enjoyed. I especially remember fondly his conducting of the auction at my 50th birthday and the hilarity that came with that wit. I am sure that he is keeping heaven in stitches right now. Our sincerest condolences at this time.
