During a snowstorm one year we were snowed in sleeping in because the whole world was shut down. We were awoken by the sound odd some kind of machine. We thought it would go away but it just kept on going. Missy went to investigate and I and behold Dennis was out in our driveway with his Cub Cadet that had a plow attached and chains on the tires. He was bundled up like and Eskimo working diligently plowing our entire driveway and Missy said, "You better go get your boy, he´s making you look bad". We laughed and thought how lucky we were to have Dennis in our life.

Dennis was my neighbor in Farmview. He was the first person to welcome us to the neighborhood. We all swam in his pool shortly after. He was always the first to offer help with anything he thought we needed. He always had the tool needed to do the job. I loved him like a father and will miss him dearly. Vicky and Dennis are the best friends and neighbors anyone could ask for.
