So sorry to hear of Dennis’s passing. He was a wonderfull friend and teammate. Our condolences to his familly.

I was so sorry to hear of Dennis’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. I have many great memories of the years we worked together at Wellore. It was always a wonderful day when you could hear his booming voice and laughter throughout the office!

Very sorry to hear that we have lost Dennis. Although we haven’t been in touch for a few years, we would often cross paths when we were both working downtown. We met in the same wing at the Athabasca Hall residence at the U of A, both starting out in engineering. He was always concerned about how difficult it was since being from Saskatchewan and very bright, he had never had to write a significant exam, he just got promoted. He didn’t have that easy sailing at U of A. Of course his concerns were all for naught as he breezed through Engineering as he did in the outside professional and business world. A great guy and I wish I had seen much more of him these past years. My very best wishes to the family, he went far too soon.

Sorry about your father inlaw Colette, our thoughts are with you and your family.

Love Russell, Minnie and Family

So sorry to learn of Dennis’s passing. I have many fond memories of working together at Wellore. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

It was with great shock and sorrow to hear of Dennis’s passing. My thoughts and prayers will be with the family. I worked with Dennis after he came out of retirement about ten years ago and always enjoyed catching up with him when we would run into each other in the plus 15. I will always carry his smile with me.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We are so glad that we had the pleasure of having spent time with Dennis at your home. Take care.

I knew Dennis from working with him at the ERCB and always enjoyed his sense of humour and political opinions. Very sorry to have heard that he has passed away. Rest in peace Dennis. The world will be a sadder place without you. Ken

I was saddened to read of Dennis’s passing in the Herald.

I had the great fortune to have worked with Dennis at Gulf Canada in 1978-79. He was a wonderful supervisor and taught me a lot about the oil patch. It was one of my first assignments. I will never forget his joveal nature and kindness.

In subsequent years I would occasionally meet Dennis while walking in downtown Calgary. He would never fail to give me a warm welcome and a big smile. We would always talk for a while.

It was an honor to have known Dennis. He was a very fine person.

Perhaps these words may help a little at this time.

I am very sad to hear of Dennis’s passing. He has touched many people, including myself, and he will be missed at our morning coffees.

Sorry to hear of Dennis passing-

He was a very good friend at a time I needed friends the most-God rest his soul !!!

Thane & Family,

Dabney and I were very sad to see the news. A difficult time for everyone. There is little that can be said, other than to remind you that we are thinking about you and your family, and here if there is anything we can do. I am pleased that we had an opportunity to meet your dad, if only briefly. I know he will be missed.
