Dennis came into our booth many times and visited. I, Kayla, am from this area also and there was a lot to talk about. Jim and I were talking, we had a very busy Summer, but was Dennis down this Summer we both feel like he was and was his illness sudden or had it been in remission. Don't remember him talking about being sick. So sorry for your loss.
