Not sure what to say?

Denny-
It was so fortunate that I was able to get to know you over the last 10 years. Thanks for all of the memories, the fun times, and the little gifts you gave us. I promise to try and take care of your daughter, although she has more than just a little of you in her!

Denny definitely made a difference in my life. His memory will live on!!!

Cliff and Dawn, So sad to hear about your dad. He had a great sense of humor, and he sure provided good life experiences for you - like living in Hawaii and having a monkey as a pet. How cool is that?!? I'm personally grateful that he helped persuade Cliff and Doug to get my bike out of a tree. Cherish the memories. Hugs to both of you!

Dad, I don't know what I am going to do with the void that has been left in my heart with your passing. I so wanted to call you on my way home from work yesterday, but I called to check on sheila instead, she is very sad, but hanging in there. I know time will ease the pain and there will come a time when I think of you and your humor and love of life and will laugh at the memories we have shared, but right now there are tears. Thanks so much for everything. The years you took us to Hawaii...

Rest in peace Mr. porter. All of us in Bloomington respected and loved you and your family. I miss you yelling "Turner what are you doing"!!

Dad we were all on a very big adventure to Hawaii when we moved there in the early 80's, we gained some life long friends and unforgettable experiences. Dad always had an adventure up his sleeve, whether a trip across the country, bringing home some exotic pet (snake, parrots, monkeys, rats, squirrel, fox, skunk And so on...) or fixing up a unbelievable tropical fish tank. We enjoyed the adventures. Some memories that are unnoticed include dad standing on the sidelines or sitting in bleachers...

I have some of the best memories with the Porter family growing up when they lived on 3rd Ave. Their home was the place we kids would like to hang out and play. Always had unlimited bowls of Ice Cream and Saturdays we made Pancakes. Never a dull moment with the Monkey and Parrots. Dennis you will be missed. Hugs and Love to the family.

Our deepest condolences to the Porter family. I remember the first time I met him and Sheila in Makaha. I knew he was one special man. Thank you for sharing your Dad with us. A Hui Ho Mr. Porter, fly with those Angels. Aloha Ke Akua (God is Love). With love your Hawaii Ohana
