Connie & Family-
I am so saddened to hear of the loss of Dennis. He was my mom's nephew which made us cousins. I have fond memories of visiting the barn of Grand Bonanza and seeing the foals that where born. My Uncle John, Aunt Lou, and Dennis have always held a special place in my heart. My sincere condolences and may God bring you peace and comfort now and in the days ahead.
