Dennis had the most beautiful hands. He used them to create art, play music, cook divine meals, clear Emma and Susan’s path, and gently touch the people he loved. He was a runner, a bicyclist, a Real Change volunteer, a traveler, a helpful neighbor and a loyal friend. He loved his son Corey with all his heart and was delighted when Corey married Aurora, who joined the family with ease. He loved his wife Barb even though she oftentimes drove him nuts. He loved the rain. A donation in his honor can be made to Real Change Newspaper in Seattle.

In the deepest way possible, he will be missed.
