I am so sorry to hear of Dennis' passing. I knew him from working at WCU - we affectionately referred to him as the "bug man!"
He will be missed.

Prayers are with the family at this difficult time. Dennis was one of God's unique persons - so many personalities wrapped up into one courageous guy. As a child he was funny, looking for adventure and very intelligent. He will be missed.
