    Dearest Jan and family,
    We are continuing to keep you all in our prayers for peace and comfort during this time of loss.
    Dennis was my little brother and I will miss him greatly. Dennis was the kind of person that was always ready to help anyone in time of need. He had a keen ability to fix almost anything and did it with a cheerful attitude.
    We know he is at peace with the Lord and all the saints in heaven.
    I am now looking back at our card games and some of the funny things he did but somehow he came out the winner.
    I love my dear brother.
    God bless
    Richard and Mary
    Richard and Mary

    Words can’t express how sorry we are to lose Dennis, our dear neighbor and friend. He was always willing to help us and lend a hand in whatever project we had going. We shared so many stories and laughs at our backyard fence. We are so saddened and miss him terribly but we shall meet again and it will be beautiful. Our prayers continue for Jan and all the family. We are here if and when you need anything. God bless you all.

    We have known Dennis all his adult life, even back to high school. He was kind and thoughtful and funny. If you were lucky enough to know Dennis, you loved him. He will be missed by many. If we had known he was so ill, we certainly would have been there for him. I will always regret we were never informed about anything.
    God Bless Dennis, you are in good company.
