I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother and father so closely together. My prayers are with all of you during this time of sorrow.
Janet & Family
To The Family,
My prayers are with you during this time of sorrow. However, I know in my heart that Dennis is in an incredibly awesome place called Heaven. He was a delight to work with for several years at the Sisters of Mercy Urgent Care and brought joy to many of us and to the patients there. He will be missed. I feel so wonderfully blessed that the Lord should have us cross paths on this short journey in life. God bless to all, Doc ‘V’.
I worked with your Dad years ago at Swannanoa Medical Ctr. and will remember him as a funny and loving guy..He always made us laugh and was full of life even when he was down..You boys were tiny and lived on Lake Eden Road..I came several times and talked with your Mom too.. ..Take Care ….
Dear Family,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your Dad. I also lost my dad this year. It is a loss no one can explain. I will be praying for you. I worked with your Dad at Sister’s Of Mercy also and I loved him like a father. He would always call and check on me to see if I was alright, and you don’t know how much that meant to me. He always made people smile where ever he was, and I know he is smiling in heaven today. We will see him again. Take care and may the love of God help you during this time of sorrow.
What a wonderful man Dennis was! He made me laugh all the time and he was one of the sweetest men I have ever known. He cared about everyone around him. I worked with him for a long time at Sisters of Mercy Urgent Care and I got to see daily how kind he was to the patients and the staff. God is always with us and I pray that he will give your family the strength you need to face the loss of such a wonderful man. He will be missed!
What a loss for for us but what a blessing he will be in heaven. Dennis was a true caring man who always was concerned with others well being. He was someone who even in a time of pain and sickness at Urgent Care would make the patients laugh! We will miss you Dennis and thank you for taking time to really care about others!! You will always be missed…
