So sad to hear of Denny's passing! I never heard and have lost a very, very close friend from my high school years. Denny was an honest, truthful and peaceful guy who was such a good friend and person. I am deeply saddened to hear the news. He was the kind of "real"person who could go years without seeing yet strike up with as though no time had passed.
This will take some time.
My deepest condolences to his sisters.

Denny (Buff) as I knew him from college and beyond was a great person, funny, witty just a great all around guy. I know he really loved his daughter and grandkids as he always talked about them when we spoke. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends rest in peace brother.
