My deepest condolences for you...

It was a great privilege to have known Dennis. His positive outlook on life was an inspiration to all, especially his "hall mates." His leadership and respect and caring for students is irreplacable!!. I am sorry I missed his service (I was out of town). My thoughts and prayers have been with all of his family and friends.

Dennis was amazing and his death is a loss for all of us. Working with him for more than 10 years was a great experience; I respected his insight with students, and loved his quiet yet firm and straightforward leadership of the English department at SCC. Godspeed, Dennis.

A rare mensch and a beautiful spirit - what a loss to all who knew him. My deepest sympathy to the family and close friends.

He really won't be far away. His happy countenance remains here at SCC, I believe, in many ways. We won't forget his whistling down the hall either.
