Tracy & Family:
Words can't express the emptiness that you are all feeling now. But with time it will all turn into memories. Until then, now that Dennis is in a beter place where there aren't any tears or pain. I am sure God needed him for a special purpose and chose him. Be assured he is watching over you, Tracy and the children. He wouldn't want you to be sad, he only wants happy tears, because he is now happy and smiling down on all of you. RIP Dennis, you are missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. I remember when little Denny would work on cars with my brother Spundy, growing up he was like another big brother. He was a great guy and will be missed.
Take Care and hold onto the memories.

Our prayers are with you at this very difficult time. Although I didnt know Dennis very well...my father knew him for many years and respected him...I used to follow my Dad (Spundy) over to drop off his car when ever it needed some work...and Dennis always treated him fairly and ALWAYS did a great job with pride. He would always tell us something new about his family and by listening to him you could tell he truly loved all of you and he was so proud of each of you. Our prayers and sympathy are with each of you.
