Dennis was the best next-door neighbor you could ask for. Since the day I moved in he always made me feel welcome in the neighborhood. I will remember fondly all the stories he shared from across the picket fence. He always kept me chuckling.
My sincerest condolences to Sheila and the Richwine family. Dennis will be dearly missed.
