Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Belit & Margarita Larry & I are so terribly saddened by your loss. May God wrap his arms around you and bring you comfort in this time of emptiness and sorrow.
Margarita: We are so sorry for your loss. We have some fond memories of Dennis when Paige was very little. He got such a kick out of her reading and teaching her words from the newspaper when whe was only 2 1/2 years old. A very kind and caring man. Our prayers go out to your whole family. Love Julie, Kim, Paige & Travis Quastad
Jeff and Jaime – It is with great sadness that Ed and I read that Dennis had passed away. Even though we hadn’t seen him in a while we still fondly remember him and telling us never again would he roof our house. Can’t say that we blame him! We will keep all of you in our thoughts during this sad time. I know he is in a better place and I hope he is having a great time with your folks. Love,
Dear Margarita and Family, Dennis was such a kind person. He always had a smile and something positive to say. We will miss him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Sincerely,
There was never a time when Dennis saw me that he didn’t greet me with that wonderful smile and a ‘hi, Karen.’ We had a special connection because Dennis’ dad knew Morris Stauffer, Greg’s stepdad. We enlisted Evelyn to cater our rehearsal dinner at Olde English Manor Apartments in l976. Greg lost his younger brother last Monday. We share in those feelings of loss. With our deepest sympathies.
Margarita, Belit, cousins, and others Terry and I want to express our most profound sympathy to all of you. I will always hold in my memories the great times I had with Denny those summers long ago in Yankton while we were staying with Grandma. Terry felt an instant bonding with Denny because of their common Vietnam service. He was a brave, gracious man who will be missed. All of you will be kept in our prayers. Dennis will forever be a hero in our eyes. He has finally received his true ‘Welcome Home, Soldier’. Joan Tonseth Davis and Terry Davis St. Peter, MN
Marguerita, Belit and family, Our prayers are with you in this very difficult time. We have many, many fond memories of Dennis and your family. The many years that Belit and Jennifer were in school together and how our big church/school family became one. Dennis was a tremendous person and made the world a better place because of all he did and who he was. We will miss his warm smile and kind and gentle manner. Dave and Linda Landoll and family
To the Schulte Family, We are so sorry for the loss of Dennis. We lost a true Veteran and soldier who came to the calling of his nation. We will continue to pray to our Lord to bring quick healing and comfort to you all in this time of need. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very moment. We also pray for Dennis, who went to touch the face of God. May Dennis have God’s abundant grace and eternal Glory in the Kingdom that awaits us all. We will miss Dennis very much and never forget his sacrifice to our nation. To our fallen! Comrade. Love
