It was wonderful to see everyone who was able to come on Sunday, even ever so briefly. I know His sister Pat was truly touched.

Coming to terms with the passing of a good friend is hard, but I look at pictures of Denny everyday and enjoy them.  I'll miss him, but he is always with me, so I don't miss him.  Denny, have a great time till we meet again.

Denny, I still can't believe that you're no longer with us.  There's not a day goes by that I don't think of you.  So many good memories.  My solace is that you're once again with your beloved Conner.  You touched so many lives yet remained one of the most humble, unassuming people I've ever had the privilege of knowing.  You were so loved and are now so missed.  Until we meet again, dear friend.
