Dennis,
Words can't begin to describe the gut wrenching pain that I felt when I received the heartbreaking news of your untimely passing. To be honest I am still trying hard to come to grips with it.

Wow, just a few weeks before that dreadful day Malachi was here telling me about the plans the two of you recently had discussed concerning your future endeavours. He was very enthusiastic as he talked and it just warmed my heart.

As Malachi's mother I thank you tremendously for giving him the opportunity to experience true friendship. A friendship such as that is very rare these days. I am just so very sad it was cut short.

You was like a son to me Dennis so now as you Rest In Peace I will do my utmost best to help Malachi look out for your Precious Princess Lilah. You was FAMILY so she is FAMILY. As Malachi would say: "We Got You Bro, No Sweat.

To the parents of Dennis I want you to know that you raised a remarkable young man. He was always very polite and very respectful. He was someone I was pleased, grateful and delighted to call a true friend of my son Malachi.

I give thanks to the Almighty Father God for allowing Dennis to be a part of our lives. Although it was short lived your spirit will linger near to us and the memories of you will live on in our hearts.

Gone But Definitely Not Forgotten.
Rest Easy Dennis. My Son By Another Mother.

Carla, there are No words to express how sad we feel for the loss of Dennis. He was most definitely one of the Really Good young men. I didn't see him often, but when He saw me he would always Call out to me, check in & let me know of his progress in life. Shonari was Blessed to have such good friends including Dennis. He was like family.
My husband Kent & I will keep you in our Prayers.

Dear Carla n Smooch, it is with sadness in my heart for you both that I express my condolences on the loss of your son Dennis. Although I only knew him for a short time while working at the house, it was good to have met him. I remember you talking about him being in school n coming home for the summer so you wanted to "fix up" his room. I remember him having a few of his mates over n messing around with the bikes. I felt a kinship with you guys as u treated me like family at times while doing the work. Every time I pass the house I look over n remember your household n a mother's love for wanting to give their child the "best" n in a small way I was part of that. As a parent I can't claim to know how you feel in this instance but God, our heavenly Father does, for his son died an early death as well.I pray that as you mourn your loss that you would sense the peace n presence n comfort of God through those who surround you n love you at this time. I will support your family(s) in prayer.
