Very sad to hear about Dennis. I believe we only met once at the infamous Kenney pool party back in West Warwick RI, a day that will live in infamy. Glad to see he also enjoyed billiards, I too have been known to pick up a stick, Dennis have a rack ready for me on the other side.

Deeply saddened to here of Dennis passing. We grew up together. He and jay and I spent many hours of our youth together creating mischief but always with fun as the motivator. Went into the army together. That says a lot. Didn’t know much about anything. Wish I could have seen him one more time. Peace to you Jay. No that I love you

We are so sorry to hear about Dennis’ passing. He was genuinely a nice person with a great sense of humor. Our neighborhood Christmas celebration will not be the same without Dennis as Santa. Our thoughts and prayers are with Sue and their families.

Not enough words to express how saddened we are to learn of this loss!!! Dennis is the perfect gentleman, family man, and friend to so many! His passion for life has inspired me on many occasions! My heart is broken for the family and everyone that has had the pleasure to call him your friend! Any curveballs thrown at him in life he went down swinging! There was no waiting for things to get better, he would push thru everything and that spirit for living is one of the many things that you should take on your personal journey! See you on the other side! Rest In Peace
