Dear Sampson Family,
I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Dennis on a professional level over at the Windjammer condominiums. It did not take long to find out that Dennis was a kind man and a person that did not know a stranger. I take pride in the fact that Dennis trusted me and my company to do the project at hand. I did not know Dennis on a close personel level but he had a way of making one feel at ease. I liked Dennis and I am so sorry I did not know him better. My heart goes out to his family and I am so sorry for their loss.

Kathy, Quinn, & Moira, I am so sorry for your loss. Denny and I became friends immediately in 1986. He was the sharpest mind I have ever known, and could do more on a post-it note or paper napkin than most computers.
I share your sadness, and pray that God will comfort you in every way.

Kathy, Quinn, Moira, words cannot express my feelings for you. It was way to sudden and too quick. Denny was a unique person whose memory will last with all of us for our lifetime. John and Carol Holmes

Denny was a great friend and mentor for me and many of my past colleagues at ADT. His tremendous intellect was surpassed only by his humor and wit.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Cathy, Quinn and the rest of the family.

I WORKED WITH DENNIS FOR MORE THAN 5YRS. AT ADT IN ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE. HE WAS ALWAYS ON TOP OF EVERYTHING. MY CONDOLENCES TO HIS FAMILY.
June 22, 2011
I have had the pleasure of knowing Dennis for 4 years, when he purchased a condo at Windjammer and I've handled the rental of his condo since that time. I've talked with him on several occasions but recently I worked with him more on getting an alarm system set up at Windjammer. We had some good conversations and I'm happy to have known him; he will be greatly missed around here. The family is in my prayers during the coming days because I know it will be difficult adjusting without him but hold tight to the memories, they will help carry you thru each day. We are confident in God's Word where He says we will see our loved ones again. God Bless You All, Pam Fischer
