Our dads were good friends in the 1950s. They worked together at NACA (later to be NASA). We lived on the same street in Lancaster and had many childhood adventures. He was my very first non-family friend in life, at the age of 3 about 1952. From the photo you can tell we were a couple of serious cowboys. Later we were friends in early high school in Houston, Texas. I was lucky to have a business trip to LA in 2017, so we got together for a coffee in Lancaster. Glad I got to see him one last time after all of these years. Was looking forward to visiting again this year but just found out he died. Rest well, my friend. You are missed.

Rip bro thanks for leading the way for many of us in savana you were always a great example of what recovery looks like  my condolences to your family 

Dennis was a special man we navigated the early years of our recovery together. It was a joy to learn how to enjoy life again together he had a true purpose and a kind nature about him.  You will be missed my friend. 

Thanks Dennis for all you did for me and so many others  in recovery . You will be missed Rip Bro 

I have so many great memories with Denise. We got clean together back in 1986 87 for Denise and spent many hours together in meetings, dances, picnics and traveling together to San Fernando Mission College to get our Chemical Dependency Counselor certifications. After moving to Vegas 20 years ago, I lost touch and am saddened that I didn't get to see him one more time. 😓 RIP my old friend. See you on the other side. My heart felt Condolences to his family. 

In 1988 Dennis had returned to Lancaster and I had just gotten out of treatment.  We both started attending meetings in AV at the same time.  I remember sitting in Denny's for my first meeting after the meeting with Dennis.  We served as Chair and Vice Chair of SAVANA's 1st ASC together.  I have many wonderful memories of our friendship. We walked through many hard times and good times together.  He was a good man and friend. He will be missed.  Be at peace my friend and save me a seat.

Dennis was my grandsponsor for many years, a mentor, a wonderful example of the program, and just as important my friend and fishing buddy.  We had many great trips fly fishing.  

Rest in peace my friend.  I will remember you with love always. 

Thank you for sharing your experience strength and hope my dear friend. Your wisdom and experience working in the field of behavioral health care was much appreciated.  I was able to see you walk through some very difficult times early in my recovery which was helpful in my journey! Love and prayers to all who love you, may you Rest In Peace ❤️🙏🏻

Dennis was a close and good friend. He helped me sort out several problems related to the Vietnam War. Dennis and I were in different outfits, he with the !st ID and myself with the 25th ID. We both served in the same areas of operation from 1969 to 1970. we didn't know each other then but fought at the same places! Dennis was a decent and kind man. he often shared stories about his wife and how much he loved her. Dennis will always be with us in memory, love and heart. My condolences and prayers go out to his wife, family and friends. God bless him.
