I grew up with Dennis and his sister and brother Bill for many years when we were very young and live in NE Cedar Rapids,Richmond Rd ,Keith Dr NE.
As kids we had tons of fun and his folks were really great people as well.
I am shocked that Dennis died so young! He was a great man and friend and I have lots of great memories of growing up
I will miss him deeply.
My condolences to the entire Henderson Family
Sincerely
Bud Pearson
