I am so so sorry to hear about the passing of Father Dennis. My heart is broken. He was among one of the kindest priest I have ever known. He truly cared about his parishioners. My condolences to his family upon the passing of this remarkable individual. I always felt a calling to religious life, Father was very supportive in my discernment process. I will never forget him. The world is indeed better because he was here. May Father Dennis now rest in the peace of Christ.
