Dennis Eaton Memoriam

Let me introduce you to our extraordinary friend,

Dennis Eaton who left this Earth 1 year ago.

Dennis was passionate about life, people, travel, motorcycles, cars, guitars, music, and animals. His razor sharp wit, often scandalous, was beyond compare. Salesman and driven entrepreneur, his travels took him as far as China and he eventually settled in Costa Rica, where he built and enjoyed a home and gathering place he christened The Freebird. He was kind, caring and generous. He had friends all over the world and he cherished each of them. He spent his days entertaining them with his humor and endlessly looking for ways to support them with an encouraging word or helpful deed. His love of life compelled that he battle cancer with the signature ferocity and irreverence that defined him, all the while using his humor to ease our suffering. Dennis, your place in our world will never be filled. We love and miss you. "Except for me being me, I haven't

done anything wrong." Dennis Eaton, 11/16/16
