Dennis was a great friend and business associated for almost 20 years. His creativity and friendship are great tributes to his legacy. My family and I will miss him.

Dennis was a genuine friend. He was extremely proud of his work in designing furniture. He would always fax me a copy of new ideas for opinions. Although I only knew him for almost 4 years, we enjoyed endless conversations about his children, real estate, restaurants, my work, and the stock market. Some of the most enjoyable times we had was when he visited my restaurant for dinner, and I would experiment new dishes for his opinion. On one occasion, I actually had hime rolling ravioli for me. I thank God that we got to know each other. I can really say that Dennis touched my life.
