Not sure what to say?

Dennis went through a lot with me, helping me. He married me. He brought me back to church and I loved him as everyone did. Say hi to Gary for me Dennis

He gave the most amazing sermons that touched the hearts of all who heard him. I still miss his words of wisdom and encouragement!

Rest in Peace Brother. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

Dear Nikki and family,
Just learned of Dennis' passing and am saddened to hear of the loss of this special friend. He ministered to our family in a very special way during the loss of my husband and the illness and passing of my mother. He always seemed to know when to show up and the right words to say to comfort those who were hurting. Many were touched by his words of comfort at both of their funerals. He ministered especially to my daughter who lost her dad when she was only 15. ...

I am so saddened by the loss of Dennis. He touched so many lives with his ministry. I will never forget his compassion for my family following the loss of my daughter. My family and I are honored to have known and loved Dennis.

To the Newman family, the hearts of the class of Holston Warriors 1970 are all broken to hear that Denny has left us! And, for those if us who went to Chilhowee with him, the hurt is deeper still!
He always made you laugh and smile-feel good! I can see him telling stories and entertaining the Warriors who have gone on ahead of us!
Will be keeping you in my prayers and thoughts!
Love, Mary Jane (Smiddy) Chipser

Dennis was an incredible minister and an inspiration to everyone who heard him speak. He was funny, he was gregarious, he was kind, and he was the best preacher I ever heard.
