Not sure what to say?

John and Mary Denison are truly two of the most kind and gentle people one will ever hope to meet. If you ever had the honor of meeting them and being with them for just a short time it will of lasted with you for a life time. I look forward to joining them once again in the Kingdom of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. The last time I spoke with John, shortly before his departure in July, he accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. He said he was sorry for his sins, he believed Christ died...

I knew John for 31 yrs. being a co-worker at Calcot Ltd. He was a very kind man and always so energized as I remember. Deepest Sympaty to the Family. RIP John and we'll see one another in another life. God Bless

I do not know Mr. Denison or your family, but I salute our cherished Veterans who fight/fought for freedom. Our family recently buried my brother at Bakersfield National also. I noticed the wedding date of your wonderful parents - one day after I was born! Your Dad sound like a wonderful man. God bless the memories of your Dad and Mom. God bless and comfort your family.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always. John Francis Denison was a hardworking, kind, generous and loyal friend and family member to many people. Always very social, John will be remembered for his enjoyment of being with friends and family whether at the dinner table or on his famous drives around Kern County.

John and Mary Denison were life-long friends of my brother Paul and by extension our whole family. John and Mary were kind and caring people quick to laugh, greeting all with respect. It was a blessing to know such people. I'll miss speaking with John on the phone. John and Mary are together again. Gary Crouch Woodland Park, CO

I worked with John during my "Calcot" years. He was one of the first to welcome me into the fold in the Traffic Department. To give advice always! And to even help me build a patio at my home! (Another funny story that would take far too long to tell). John & his "sidekick" Mr. Jim Stockton would for years stop by the Gin from time to time. We would sit and share remembrances. Usually involving mutual acquaintances and just perhaps, an occasional lie. Suffice to say, John was one of the most...
