Dennis hasn't been around for 6 months or more. Hope he is well. Anyone know?

I trust you know Dennis had some serious health challenges...

Yeah, me too. We've been losing far too many from the 'Fire these days. I hope Dennis is doing well and enjoying life to the fullest.


That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Alas, I feared just this. I recall when he got his diagnosis, I knew how the story ends. God bless him.

The stories all end alike. It's the trip that matters. Dennis has a rougher road than many. My prayers for him.

Dennis is a tough SOB for having fought this damn illness so long. Lesser men would not have made it nearly as long.

I'm happy to have had the opportunity to meet him.

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

As a new member to the fire Dennis was one of the few whose posts I tried not to miss.

I count Dennis as a good friend and am also sorry for his latest setback. As said he is having a rough go of it at present, but he is a fighter which no doubt is probably part of the reason he is still with us.

The last time we were up to see him was in September 2013 and he was really doing quite well. We enjoyed our time with him then immensely. I too, feel enriched by knowing him and have always admired him.

Here is a picture taken in September 2013 on his porch. He looked good with just a touch of gray in his beard. wink

Same here!

There was an article in a magazine that I could not get here in Sweden, and Dennis took the trouble to get my address, make a nice color photocopy of the article and send it via post to me here in Sweden.

Dennis is a classy and very friendly guy.
