Dennis was one of the most caring, selfless and giving men I knew. He was a pillar for me when my husband, (Jim) was sick. No matter what I needed, Dennis found a way to make it happen. He sat with Jim, he stood with him when I had Jim baptized and confirmed. He cried with me and gave me strength when I wasn't sure I could handle anymore. I will be forever grateful to this man that was so good to me at a time when I needed it the most. I am so proud to call him my friend. 

Janet, there are no words to comfort you.  Your life will never be the same, but it is much richer for having married Dennis. I think of him often and remember his sense of humor and it makes me smile. Please know that one day, you will wake up, the pain won't be so deep and moving ahead will be just a bit easier. Believe me when I tell you that he is always with you and watching over you. He was a very special man and one not to be forgotten.  You and he are always in my heart. ❤️

I am lost for words at the moment. Dennis was a true friend, and fellow poolplayer. Dennis, Janet and I were teammates at the Green Room, but more importantly...friends!

I would see Dennis regularly on his rounds to collect/drop off APA paperwork. On each occasion, I would eagerly look for his "sly" smile and laugh heartedly at his jest/attempts at humor.

Truly heartbroken, I will miss you dearly Dennis...but remember you always. Thank you Lord, for allowing us to meet and our paths to cross.

Rest in Peace Dennis.  You and Janet were always there for me and my daughter Tara. Thank you dear friend, you will truly be missed and never forgotten. 

I will Always remember all the laughter you brought to me and our team!! You were always so kind and generous and loved your family unconditionally, no matter how much you and Mrs. Janet bickered with a smile!! Thank you for every timeout you coached me on ..  I may not have always pulled off the play you were suggesting to me but the knowledge you’ve given me will Always remain with me!! Knowledge is power!!  You were a truly remarkable friend and coach and will truly Be Missed!! 💔🙏🏻

I played on multiple teams with Dennis at the Green Room and I always looked forward to spending time with him.  We are both big Orioles fans and I enjoyed the games we went to together at Camden Yards.  Dennis was a special guy with a big heart.  Rest in peace my friend.   

Dennis rest I  peace. We will miss you in many ways. Always a freind and we knew each other for years. We always had each others back at the green room. You will truly be miss by all of us. See you down the road ..

Dennis always had a friendly hello and was always around to help. We didn’t know him as long as others, but we will remember his kind soul. Rest easy, Dennis. Our deepest condolences to Ms. Janet and family. - Randy and Adrienne Fox

I remember when we would do the Halloween party’s at the greenroom and he would always pick my brothers costume because he would always laugh and smile at them.

I remember when Janet and Dennis first met!!! Dennis was over the moon in love with her. Dennis had a loving soul and would give the shirt off his back to help anyone that needed it. So many memories from the time they lived across the street from us on Quentin Road and more!!! My thoughts and prayers go out to Janet and the family. He will truly be missed by all.  Sending love you all.

In 2017 i was diagnosed with Als when Dennis found out he offered to help in any way.So he stepped up in a big way and picked me up from two medical appointments truly a great man


I had the pleasure of working with Dennis at the APA. When he came to the office to help out he always walked in with a smile. He was such a hard worker and always talked about his grandchildren. He loved showing us pictures or videos he had taken of the grandchildren. I will never forget when I got a call at work that my father was not going to make it, (he had been in the hospital after multiple surgeries), Dennis stopped what he was doing and rushed me to the hospital so I could say goodbye to my dad. I will always be grateful that I got to say goodbye to my father and it's all because Dennis rushed me to the hospital to see him. You will be deeply missed by all of your family and friends. You touched many lives in a positive way! I will miss you Dennis!
