Where do I begin?  Dennis and I go back a long time, form High School to Algonquin College, business and most importantly friendship.  He was always a calming influence in times of crisis and new how to enjoy life when it was time for fun with friends (always putting us first before himself).  It's been tough to keep our minds busy on other things in the last few days so that the sadness doesn't hurt as much; but know that we will always keep your memory alive in our hearts forever. I'll miss you buddy!

Dennis was one of the true gentlemen that I have had the pleasure of calling my friend.  My deepest condolences go out to his family and especially to Tyson.  Dennis you will always be remembered.

I met Dennis through the bar industry some years ago, and felt an instant connection (as I'm sure most would say). He really had a way of making you feel like you were "an old friend". In recent years, I've made an annual trip from Montreal to Ottawa to celebrate Canada Day with a few pals. Always at The Cock & Lion! Since Dennis' illness, although the patio is full every year, it has seemed kind of empty without his presence the past few years. This past Canada Day, we had the pleasure of spending a good portion of the afternoon sitting and chatting with his sister Juan & her daughters. It was then that I recognized, first hand, the strain of warmth & kindness that runs in the Hinds family (just good, wholesome people). He will be sorely missed. ); My sincere sympathies to the Hinds family & all he was close to.

Dennis guided me in many ways helping me become the man I am today. Dennis will always be remembered. Love you Dennis.

To our darling Dennis, Me and your son will miss you so much. Your little man will make you proud every day on and off the ice..Your little hockey player now has a precious angel to protect him. I see you every day through is eyes. Dennis, you left me the most precious gift this world can offer. Thank you

Dennis helped me become the person I am today. Thanks for the wonderful memories - you will be forever missed. My deepest sympathy to the Hinds family.
