I would like to thank those of you who have reached out to me. Thank you for your prayers and concern. My nephew Josh was killed Saturday afternoon in a Jet Ski accident at Saguaro Lake east of Mesa, AZ. The bass boat went over him and his body did not resurface. He was riding with a friend who, along with the occupants of the bass boat searched frantically for him but to no avail. The family had began a vigil at the lake on the fishing dock adjacent to the search area. We had lots of support from friends and family. This has been especially tough for the family as 13 years ago while cleaned up the ditches at my cotton farm in Safford, Josh's then older brother, who was 12, was killed when my ATV flipped over on him and my son. MCSO recovered his body early this morning so the family can have some closure. I have attached a short article that was published in the local news site this morning. Dennis Interview

Terrible. No mother should have to bury a child let alone two children. I'll be keeping them in my prayers.
I've been on my fair share of boat vs jet ski and the boat always wins.

Man. I am so sorry to hear of that tragedy. May God be with those involved.

Damn Dennis...
sorry to hear about this.... don't know what to say....
Please know, prayers for all of your family will be in my thoughts today and the next couple of ones..
if I had to experiencing losing my son.. I think that would make me loose any care on about anything in this world..
I don't know how his mother can take losing two of her children...
I know losing my brother when he was 16 and I was 17... I've never gotten over that one..

Grief is a very sort word; it is more a sound to describe pain that is unbearable. My heart goes out to you and your families.
