Dennis, I don't know if you truely knew how much you were loved and how much you meant to us all. You were always so generous and never ever forgot your nieces. Not once did you miss their birthdays or Christmas for them. I don't know to many men that can be so on top of it especially when it comes to remembering dates. You will be so greatly missed. Say Hi to Mike for me. We Love You! Bernadette, Lora, and Lisa
