Dennis and I both went to junior high school at the old Dagg building. Our classes were small and we really got to know one another. After we went to Northgate, we drifted apart, but I felt priveleged to have known Dennis. He was a fine young man.
Dennis and I went to the Methodist Church in NKC I think we both recieved our 6 year pins form perfect attendance. We also flew model airplanes together. I sold him a small engine and he started it in the house and the prop broke and bounced off the wall and binded him in one eye. I felt so bad I wish I would have never sold him that little .o49 engine. I worked with his younger brother at the Overland Park post office. He told me about Dennis's problems with cancer of the tongue and that he had problems talking, I never called him as his brother indicated that he did not like to talk on the phone if he did not have to. Sorry to hear of his problems and death he was a nice guy and derserved better.
Dennis and I went to KCJC after NKCHS. We used to sit up in the cafeteria with several other NKCHS grads. Dennis and I decided it was just too dull and nothing ever happened. So we decided to add a little excitement.
I brought in a blank gun and we started a simulated argument. We got loud (or so we thought), yelling and shoving each other. I ran up the small staircase at the rear of the cafeteria and Dennis chased me. When we got to the top of the stairs, I yelled something at Dennis, fired a couple of shots and went out the exit. Dennis did his best I'm-shot-and-collapsed then jumped up and followed me. We waited until the next hour and sneaked back in to the cafeteria. Of course when we asked if anyone noticed, we got a resounding "NO!" And so we returned to our boredom.
