Condolences
I was greatly saddened to learn of Dennis's passing yesterday. I have so many fond memories of the times the four of us had over our years in Spring Valley and your support when David was ill and later passed. I remember Dennis would say "come on, you can walk down to our house."
Both of them can now walk anywhere, free of all illness and pain.
May God give you peace and comfort knowing he is safe in the arms of Jesus. Take care my dear friend. Please call, text or message me whenever you need anything or simply want to talk.❤️
my condolences to Sharon & family for a nice guy who did his best with life problems. God bless...
— Joseph A. Spina, May 21, 2026My condolences to Sharon, Stacey, Dawn and all of the family. I always referred to Dennis as my Energizer Bunny. From the time I moved in across the street, he has always been there for me with advice or a helping hand. He tolerated my cat Salem any time he came over, and I must say, vice versa (Salem doesn't like men, lol). He and Sharon have been wonderful friends. I always shared baking with them and Dennis always made sure he returned the tin to guarantee more in future. I've no family close by and he always knocked on the door if my car hadn't moved for more than a couple of days. He had to make sure that the cat hadn't eaten me. I shall miss him very much.

We are very sad, Sharon, to hear that Dennis has passed. Although it's a while since we've seen yu, we remember Dennis as cheerful and friendly company... and always ready to play with his grandchildren.
We are thinking of you and wishing you well.
