You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of Dennis.  We graduated from SAS in the same class, and I don't think he ever missed a class reunion.  He will be remembered in my prayers.

We are so sorry for this unexpected loss of Dennis.  We know how much he meant to you all and how important family was to him.  We had the pleasure of spending an evening with Dennis in June '04 as he passed through Nashville, traveling from Boston.  He expressed how important you were in his life.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you today.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
