I know that SSG Dennie went to be with the lord so, I know that he's in a better place now. I always remember him smiling and giving alot of funny jokes, so I'm always going to remember him in that way.

Thanks for bringing brevity to every situation. Coming to your office was always a treat, and it saddened me to hear that you had passed while I was on leave in Germany to celebrate my 2n'd year anniversary. And, although we didn't talk on a daily basis, I was part of the detail that brought broke soldiers to you on a daily basis and you always found a way to help us out. I was shell-shocked to learn of your passing when I got back from R&R. My life will never be the same. Will think of you every memorial day. Rest in Peace brother, R.Como

In Memory of Mike ~ (Debra Estep)

Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers.
The Wind on The Downs
“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”
(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )
Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….
“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”
I did not know Mike, but I am remembering
his service. He is my hero. !

The Other Side
i'm over on the other side
where life and death softly divide.
left my skin and bones behind
now i'm over on the other side.
can you feel me there with you?
my breath is gone but i'm not through.
loved you then and i still do
from over on the other side.
i can fly. really fly.
below the earth ... all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.
it's good here on the other side.
the sweetest songs...the bluest skies.
thank you for the tears you cried
but it's good here on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth...all through the sky.
tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side
the world is smaller than a needle's eye.
where life and death softly divide.
when you leave your skin and bones behind
i'll be waiting on the other side.
i can fly. really fly. below the earth ... all through the sky.
go tell em all i did not die.
i'm just over on the other side.

If this person can stand in battle to ensure my freedom, then I will stand in grief with his/her family to honor him/her. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life, but I promised Le Ron A. Wilson (a dear friend KIA 7/6/07, 18yrs old) that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.

Where you are there is no more pain, and no more tears. You're in paridise now. I cherish that I was able to know you. I loved the way you lived life with excitment and passion. You always strive for the best in life, but in my eyes you were the best.

Hey Bro,
You are truly missed. Whenever I felt sad, you always did something to bring a smile to my face even when I didn't feel like smiling. Your laughter was contagious; spirit was one to be desired. Winston and I miss and love you. Always and forever in our hearts.

My heartfelt sympathy to the Dennie family in the loss of Mike. I did not know Mike, but my heart is broken and I am saddened for your loss of such a fine young person and hero. May God bring you peace in your heart as you reflect on all the wonderful memories you hold so close. Please know that you are in my heart and prayers. Mike soon it will be 19 months since you were taken. You are a hero and you will never be forgotten.
I send each of you a hug from the most inner part of my heart.

What I miss the most about you is your smile and that loud voice. I remember one time in Iraq when I was trying to sleep and all I can hear was your mouth calling SGT Mac. SGT Mac was on the other side of the bldg! I also miss our fights. You know that we had that love/hate thing going on. I really miss you and I remember our last convoy-you were sick and kept forgetting to take the right turns :). You are truly missed!

I BELIEVE WHEN ONE PASSES WE SHOULD REFLECT ON OUR OWN LIVES AS WELL AND REMEMBER THAT WE DON'T KNOW THE HOUR OR THE TIME OF OUR OWN DEMISE THEREFORE WE SHOULD REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE YEAR , REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE MONTH, REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE WEEK, REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE HOUR, REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE MINUTE, REALIZE THE VALUE OF ONE SECOND. REMEMBER TO LIVE LIFE AND LOVE THE LIFE YOU LIVE.
JAH BLESS

Rasta, it has been hard to move on knowning that you are not here in person. What helps is the fact that you would want us to live our lives to the fullest, just as you did. Your time here was well spent. We miss you.

When reflecting on the past, my memories of SSG Dennie are some of my favorites. He was always smiling and never used his "inside" voice. (SMILES) He is truly missed and his friendship was definitely a blessing.
