Best friend from the playpen days to now, so many memories of growing up in the Santa Clara Valley in California. The look, the laugh, the stance and the humor will be missed, guess we won't be the two old guys sitting on a park bench reminiscing about how great we were when we were young, but those memories will always bring a smile to my face and tears to my eyes. Man, I loved you.

From our trips to PVR to my first limo ride you will never be forgotten. Our trips to AZ will never be the same. You always made me feel welcome in your home and served us like royalty when visiting. Sending lots of love from Missouri..

What a privilege it was to have known Dennis. His big smile, heart, and generosity made him so easy to be with and a joy to be around. Your love and marriage were meant to be - you were so good for and to each other. I am a better person for having known this man and I am grateful for the present his life gave us.
