Dennis and his wife Pat moved to Lake Havasu AZ, about the time Gene and I moved to AZ. We got together several times (their house or ours, it is about a 3-1/2 hour drive). Dennis was so special. You often hear people say "what a nice guy". Well, for Dennis that was more than true. He and Pat had about five wonderful years retirement, until he died very unexpectedly - literally dropped dead of a massive heat attack. It just seems so unfair that he worked all his life and it ended so soon. Of those of us who hang out together, we all thought Dennis would be the last to die. He was in great shape, not bit overweight, and played golf several times a week. I miss him so much. I enjoy my relationsihip with his wife Pat. We see each other several times a year and talk often.

Dennis was an Armatage boy. I really enjoyed talking with him at our last reunion and remember him so well from grade school.
