Over the years Dennis and I became long distance friends. We came up through the printing equipment business pretty much the same way and we shared a love for the business.
Virtually all of our conversations felt like they lasted 5 minutes but when we were done we usually found out that we had been on the phone for an hour and a half. That's the way Dennis was. He made you feel so welcome and his personality was one that drew you in and you felt so comfortable with him.
He helped me out a great deal over the years, not just about the printing business but with life in general.
I will always miss him. 
Rest in peace my friend. 
We'll have those long talks again one day.

Everything everyone has said about Dennis is true. I live in Chilton County and just heard about his passing today. His kind spirit was always Dennis. I have known Dennis since the 70's. I Know how much he loved his family, even know how much it hurt him when he lost his dog cause he told me how much he got attacked. Said ,Leroy I really loved that dog. Just wanted the family to know I'm so sorry for your loss. Well done thy good and faithful servant. Rest my Brother. Aaron  LeRoy Adams  7/17/19

It has been a blessing to have known Dennis the past nearly 30 years. He has not only been a blessing for printing needs but on a personal level. It's been so uplifting to see his sweet spirit through all his physical issues. He will be dearly missed by myself and my co-workers at Davis Direct. It's an honor to know for certain "I will see him again"

Susan, Karen,and the whole Spaeth Family,
             So sorry you have to face such a loss,our thoughts and prayers are with you all,may God Himself help fill the void and give to you a peace that passeth all understanding and may his Blessings be upon each one of you .
               we love you   Lucille and frank  hardy

Our brother Dennis was one of the kindest and most godly men I’ve had the privilege of knowing. Even during seasons of physical difficulties Dennis always served our Lord and church body humbly and joyfully for God’s glory. He served our church body faithfully in many ways and always with a smile.  He was also a great facilitator and small group leader. Dennis, you will be deeply missed but we rejoice in knowing that “to be absent from the body is to be present with our Lord.  You have finished the tasks God set for you and I am confident Christ  said to you: “welcome good and faithful servant ... enter into my rest!”   So, rest dear brother and I look forward to the day we meet again as joint heirs in Christ.

I've known Dennis for over 33 years.  I first met him when he was a tech for Dixie type and I was just starting out as a printer. As I moved from private sector to state employment, I would always run into Dennis servicing the printing equipment and he always had a smile and friendly hand shake. After he opened his own business, IGS, they became our primary maintenance force for the state printing plant at kilby prison. Dennis and IGS always went the extra mile to make sure their customers were happy. They even supplied Christmas dinner every year for the inmates who work in our printing plant. Dennis is without a doubt, one of the nicest guys I have ever met. The very definition of what it means to be a Christian! He will be greatly missed!

I knew Dennis through his business, and was able to know his personal side over many years as well. I worked for Sakurai and Dennis was our premier representative of our printing presses for all of the years I knew him and for many years after I retired. 
He was one of the few people you could trust 100%  in business matters which was also evident by his long list of loyal customers who relied on his judgement and suggestions in their business decisions.
Dennis had a great smile, a great sense of humor, and forever an optimist. He always could find the positive side of any situation.
He will be missed by countless friends in the printing industry and in his personal life. What a great guy.
