You have my deepest sympathy, I hope our two gentle giants are reunited in a far better place and are catching up. Tom thought the world of the both of you, if he ever spoke of life before me, you both were considered highly as friends. I felt as though I knew you both;.

Condolences for Johnny , and Sue and the rest of Dennis family. My heart is broken for the loss of my dear cousin. As a young child growing up I was somewhat intimidated by Dennis(lol) He always had a bark but as I grew older I learned he was just a big teddy bear. He lived with my family for awhile in Springfield, Mo we became close friends during his time in Springfield.
Prayers for his brother Johnny , Dennis' wife Sue, and his kids. RIP Dennis❣️
