Just thinking about Dennis and google him and found this entry. Dennis and I were stationed at NavFac Cape Hatteras NC in the late '70s. Ran into each other during Desert Shield 1990. Sorry to hear about sad news, especially to Josh. God Bless to the family.

Today is memorial day and I cannot think of anyone who deserved being honored on this day more than you Dennis. You enjoyed being in the military and you did it with honor. You were so special to me and my children. They thought of you as "Dad". We love you Dennis...

Jeanette & Bill, I cannot even begin to tell you the loss I feel. Dennis was such a big part of our lives here before he moved. He was the love of my life and he had called me the day before he died altho it was brief because of my illness. My children and I loved him very much and I'm so sorry for the loss you must be feeling. Love you, Sherri & family
