Dennis and I were brothers in Pershing Rifles and in the State Bar of Texas. We saw each other occasionally through the years at Trinity University events, and Dennis was unfailingly friendly, as if we were both young ROTC cadets again. I remember him from those student days with real fondness. In a difficult time, Dennis had a welcoming personality that made him liked by all who knew him. I'm glad I was one of them, and I'll miss him.

Dennis; as a fellow Pershing Rifle Brother, I remember you as a nice guy- always there for any job, one of the hood guys... sorry not to have kept up with you - clearly you´ve been a terrific soldier, lawyer, husband, dad, and community leader. May God bless you and welcome you to his kingdom.
