    Dennis was such a good guy, gentleman, always smiling, loved to laugh, relax by the pool, loved dogs, the Cardinals and have fun. I attended many of his acting performances, went to the Ozarks several times to dance to Crossfire, and always enjoyed dancing with him. He is missed and loved.

    Dennis was a very caring man and a very good actor. I’ve acted with him in several shows but my favorite was “ Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.. I played Big Mamma and he played Big Daddy and we had a great time and it was a great success. He will be sorely missed.
