Dennis was my older brother and someone who I had great pleasure being in his companionship. We both loved movies and music, we both spent a lot of time at each others house. He was a collector of lego's and was very skilled at putting them together, and my grandkids loved to come over and watch him do his train sets. I will miss him tremendously, he was a great brother with a heart for family and friends.
Dad, I will forever cherish the time we got to spend together, our shopping trips with and without the girls, the way your face would light up watching the girls play, our endless conversations and the great advice you would always give me, for loving me so much and always treating me like I was one of your own. I will miss hearing you fuss about how there was nothing on TV, and how frustrating one of your Lego builds is being, your endless battles with little bit over his whip cream treats, and I will even miss the times you would fuss at me about not taking better care of myself. I could go on forever about everything I will miss, but ultimately what I want is to have you back. You weren't supposed to leave us so soon and how you did. At least now you don't have to worry about us so much anymore. Thank you Dad for everything especially for loving us all the way you did. I will hold you in my heart until I see you again. I love you, Kelly
