I meet Dempsey in bootcamp. Our last names started with a D so we were always together. We got in trouble more then a few times making each other laugh. We followed each other to MCT and lost touch after that but reconnected over FB. Found out we only lived 45 minutes from each other and talked about seeing each other some day. With my health problems and his it never happened. Sorry brother, till we meet again. Semper Fi 2049

I always look forward to your post on Facebook after a long night at work. It always made me smile. You will be missed. I hope you´re finally resting with no pain to the family. I´m so sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences.
