Dennis was my go-to man for bb stats, music trivia, electronic know-how and so much more. It's hard to knowing I won't see or speak with him again. More than a brother-in-law...a true friend. Sue & Eric: I'm here for you always.

"Sue, I remember the old days when Blanca and I still lived in Hudson County, and we used to all go to jazz and rock concerts together. Dennis loved Pat Metheny, and you took photos. Dennis and I went to grammar and HS together in JC, and I remember him so well. My deepest sympathies to you and Eric. He was a great person and friend." Rich & Blanca Vigna (San Francisco, CA)

My deepest sympathy and condolences to a wonderful family. Dennis was a great person. I grew up with Dennis and his brothers on Nelson Avenue. The Whelan family, Dennis, Suzy, Eric, the brothers and parents were all the best. May the LORD bless you and keep you all in your time of need. My prayers and thoughts are with you. I now live in Tampa and unfortunately fell out of touch. Would love to connect with Gary. My email is [email protected].
