My sincere condolences to Donna and her family. I remember all the good times we had double dating, especially the senior prom picnic. We always had good times, you and Denny were in my first wedding party, he was a good guy, you have been together a long time. I will remember him in my prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of working with Denny at Kennedy High School he always kept us laughing. My thoughts and prayers are with Dennys Family.

Denny was the genuine item, in that I mean EVERYONE liked Denny. He was a good person, honest and kind. Moreover, I admire for his determination to live. Many would buckle under similar health challenges, but Denny made changes to his lifestyle to overcome every health challenge he faced. He had Donna and the the kids and so much to live for.

He liked people. He made people laugh. He was war hero and lived through some terrible duty in Viet Nam for the sake of his family & country. The tremendous love and support he felt from Donna and his sons & grandsons deepened his joy in life everyday. . He was a man of purpose. He will be forever missed.
