Dennis was loved by the girls from the time he went on to Alva Middle School, and then on to High School. He had piercing green eyes that would turn brown if he was sad or mad. He had such a passionate nature and vibe which he carried throughout his life. Dennis became interested and enjoyed all types of music. He played the saxophone and was a drum major in Riverdale High School’s marching band in Fort Myers, FL. He also sang in the school chorus and the church choir. He loved to perform.

Dennis was a beautiful, intelligent, charismatic, funny, great man. A very loving, compassionate and kind soul. He was always full of ideas and dreams. He loved his family immensely. Always giving complements and showing his softer side. His laugh was explosive. He would give you one of his smiles when you didn’t have one and he always looked at the brighter side and tried to make sense of it all. He had a beautiful booming voice. Everyone enjoyed him shouting “OH YEAH”! It became a staple in our home. When you met Dennis, you could never forget him. He will be very much missed by all who knew and loved him.
We will always carry his memory in our hearts. Good night my gentle giant.
