I ran into an old colleague of mine yesterday and was just informed of Dennis‘s passing. When I received this news I couldn’t help hold back the tears from rolling down my cheek. I had the privilege to work with Dennis as his assistant at Morgan Stanley. He was so wonderful to work for and I am very grateful to have had him as a mentor. His guidance and the knowledge that he provided me with I still use to this day in my career. I was fresh out of school when I started working for him and I remember him telling me that when he first began his career as a broker he worked in an office in sears and would say it was the only place where you could buy stocks and socks! I’ll always remember his witty personality and his kind heart. Sending all my thoughts and prayers to Kay and the family during this difficult time 

Had the privilege of working with Mr. Craft in both Florence, SC and Dallas, Tx and learned so much from him during that time. He was a great leader of people and taught me to set goals and work to achieve them. I have very fond memories of our conversations and the valued advice that he shared with me. Praying for your family.

We bought the Craft home in Del Webb.  Dennis and Kay were very helpful with our move.  Dennis was particularly helpful to me about learning to care for the home.  I will miss Dennis being available to answer questions about the house but also his kind manner, assistance, and pleasant demeanor.  

I went out on several "House Calls" with Dennis for St. Vincent DePaul.  His kindness and genuine interest in helping those in need was always self-evident.  He treated everyone with respect and a deep caring concern.  We were blessed to have Dennis as part of the St. Vincent DePaul family.  He will be missed.  My sincerest condolences to his family.

Dennis will be missed.  A really good friend and golfing partner.

Dennis was someone u could trust. He was  enjoyable  to be around. He will be missed. 

Kay,
So so sorry. Dennis was a wonderful man. So kind. My favorite memory is you and Dennis taking me to the Daytona 500. I met your friend John. I knew nothing about NASCAR! But had a wonderful day and learned so much from both of you. Dennis said to me. Do you know how lucky you are to have these in fields passes.? I said yes but had no idea.

Dear Family and Friends:
Our hearts go out to you and your family with the loss of your dear loved one.  There are no words to take away sadness when you lose someone you love.  In our time of deepest need the tenderness of God is a refuge like no other.  He alone understands our sorrows and draws near in love to wipe away our tears.
When my mother passed away, we found the resurrection hope very comforting. 
May the resurrection hope sustain you.  A loved one lost can grieve the heart, and makes us yearn for tomorrow, when Jehovah will keep the promise he made of no pain, no death, no sorrow found at Revelation 21:4.
