To: Dennis' family and Roslyn, his friend. I knew Dennis briefly. He shared in my home once with Roslyn and I really enjoyed him. He was witty, down to earth and so generous with his talk, that it showed me how transparent he was. I liked Dennis a whole lot, especially because he was truthful to himself and others as well. Thank God he met the Lord. I look forward to seeing him in Heaven. I so wanted to see Dennis for Christmas, but the Lord had other plans for him. I'm glad I met you Dennis. I only wish I knew you more while here on earth. Family, your dad was a very nice person.

To:Dennis

Life and things are different now life after death. It's December 22nd 2:55am. I cant sleep I am in shock and all I see on the counter Is this pen and pad. I would of never thought I would have to write you this letter. A man who I repected and I enjoyed being with, a man with good sense of humor. Cranky at times but everyone has there days. Dennis used to crack me up. I am definitly going to miss him. Although I didnt get to know him as much as I wanted too but its ok because the Lord has called you. I respected that It's hard far from easy but I respect it. When the lord has call you he has called you to eternal life. Dont get me wrong it's a sad thing but also a beautiful thing. May the lord be with you and may your soul lay to rest.

Love,

Jairo Luis Diaz

My brother Dennis was a man of integrity in his later years in life. He worked hard on his spirtual life and I was proud of him for all the changes he had made for the good. I have nothing but happy memories of him, Dennis and I always Danced at weddings together. In all the pictures he is in, he is always smiling. I know he is smiling down on his children and myself and now he is in total happiness. To Joy, Dennis and Jenna I am always here for you, my brother would feel even more happiness knowing a Aunt and his sister is keeping up and starting a new relationship with his children, who I love. I will meet you one day in heaven Denny and we will dance together again.

My love I send up to heaven to you!
