Dennis was my best friend. He was more like a brother to me. I called him every week for the last 10 Years. He was so excited to hear from me and what I was doing. I was so excited to talk to him also.
Dennis bragged about him and Max chasing around with girls doing crazy stuff and having fun. He was excited to tell me. I always called him and Max little Tramps, because they're out playing around. And that's what he wanted to tell stories about the old days.
But you know, life let's us get older and You can't keep doing what we used to do. I will always love you, Denny. You're in my heart for the rest of my life. I miss you something awful! Love Marilyn

I met Dennis In oakdale I used to watch him race when I was an 80 novice sportsman. Used to talk to him periodically when he stopped by my house for visits. He was a good man with a great heart he will be missed greatly.
