Dennis, Thank you for seeing my potential to contribute to the work of helping the Soldier and bringing me on board. You were one smart, kind, thoughtful man. May you hurt no longer and may you be at peace. May God give your family strength to carry on.

Dennis was my first boss when I started work as a contractor on APG back in 1997. He was very kind and soft spoken. He did not play favorites and tried to be fair to everyone. I was very sad when the company moved me to another location, but always kept up with Dennis and stopped to talk to him if I was going by his office. I know that he is now pain free and keeping a watch on his loved ones from above. What a wonderful angel to have on your side. I will keep the family in my prayers, because I realize the great loss you have suffered. Rest in Peace Boss.

Dennis was a wonderful mentor and friend, he was always there to lend a hand. If someone at church just had a mere thought of something to make things better, before they got the idea out Dennis had it completed. He was wise beyond his years and My prayer is to eventually be 1/4 the man he was. If there was ever a kinder man I have not met him. God has one of his elite back in heaven with him today! May God comfort all who grieve this day with the joy that it is only the physical that is gone; and that the man we all loved is still here for us.
