I was sad to hear the news of Dennis. But I was glad I was able to make it home in May to see him since I've been in California for the last year. He was one of my peas in the pod. It was my honor to be part of his life and him part of mine. Dennis and I had an instant connection the first time we met, I really appreciate all the love and friendship that he showed me and all the wonderful things that he taught me. My heart goes out to all his friends and family.

Dennis was my cousin. His dad, Allen Sr., was the brother of my grandmother, Marion Smith. She loved Allen (Little Allen as he was known to her) so much. I remember her attending his wedding to Iris. It´s probably been over 60 years since I´ve seen Dennis but I remember how much I loved seeing him at his parents´ home. God bless his soul.
