You are in my thoughts and prayers Carrie and Shelley. May God's peace be with you. Denny was a wonderful man who took me in as one of his own many years ago. He will be missed by many, but those of us who knew him have fond memories. RIP Mr. Bedford.

Too young to go so soon. I have tried for years to remember your name. Rest in peace Dennis. I hope you did not suffer. May God give your family comfort.

I have one memory to share. When I was eight, and had just moved to Flint, we all walked home from school for lunch. I was not very good with directions. On the first day I walked by myself, going home for my lunchtime, I became lost. Crying and embarrassed, I feared I would not be able to find anything. And Dennis, My neighbor, and my agemate, found me. He lived not too far from me. He walked me to my street until I could see my house. We were children. But in my memories, Dennis was the image I have always kept as to what kindness was. I didnt keep in touch. But we are who we are. I am as sure as I am of anything, that this man has been a good man, and a kind man all his life. Many thanks to him and you, his people. Peace and love to you all.
