Denny was my hero. He shoveled and flooded a skating rink by himself on Lake Phalen for kids to skate. He embarked on winning the St. Paul "mutt races" with husky Gromeko; he took me places, included me into his family life and was always available. Later in life we would meet up in Las Vegas or at his home for a UFC fight. He was a hustler and entrepreneur; he loved cars, vacations, and embraced life on his terms. His smile and laughter made everything fun. Rest in peace my friend.

It was always a "treat" when Denny would stop by the car lot and visit. He was a breath of fresh air and always smiling. I feel fortunate to have known him...and he sure liked hanging out at the car lot. Rest in peace Denny.
