Dennis was a very close cousin that will always remain in our hearts and memories. We'll miss the oftentimes weekly emails and updates of he and Donna's wonderful life together and the sharing of our passion for cars. We're so happy we were able to spend time together in Phoenix and at our home in Florida over the last couple of years. His compassion and love for his family will always be treasured.

There was never a gloomy day when Dennis visited Millie and the rest of us in California. Warmth radiated from his kind heart, good humor, and care-free spirit. I will miss him. Sincerest condolences to his family.

Now your gone
Your bodies ashes,
you watch us all
as our world sadly crashes.

I'll miss your shiny
greying head,
And the way you tucked
Me into bed.

Even tough I am
Now older,
With out tucking me in,
My bed was colder.

All I wanted was a last phone call
Without the tears or sadness at all,
To one last time hear your voice
I wish death was not a choice.

But now your gone
Your ashes spread,
We'll meet again
When I am dead.

You helped me through
When times were sad,
You got me through
When I got mad.

We allways spent
Much time together,
But now this way
You'll be in my heart forever.

I miss you loads
My life is sad,
I love you loads
My dear old dad.
