I was sad to Dennis left us a few weeks ago. Worked on jobs with him and Chad back in the day as an electrician. Great sence of humor and fun to tease back and forth. Like most brickies, he acted like us and plumbers are in the way and slowing him down. He was a good actor and lotta fun. See him at Christ's return.
