I went to grade/high school with Dennis. He was a great friend through those years. Wayne became friends with Dennis in high school. We had such a close group in our class of 1970. It saddens us to hear this news. May God give you and your family strength at this time.

Dennis was one of my best friends all the way from boyhood through high school. I will always remember the great times we spent together. "OD" was a great guy and will be missed by many. My best to you, Kate, it has been many years. And also best regards to Mike and Julie.
