Sorry to hear about Dennis, we joined the
Corps at the same time the Summer after Graduation. He was a friend that I lost touch with after returning from Vietnam. I ran into him while I was there and that was a good suprise. When I saw him he was in Motor T and was taking us to the helio pad for a mission. He was sitting on a sandbag and driving the 6x6 truck that was taking us to get loaded up. It was great seeing him then and I wish that we could have reconnected when our tours of duty were over, sadly that never happened so this was a surprise to hear about. Rest in peace my friend. Semper fidelis... Bobby V.

Oh, no....
Dennis was the most wonderful person at SPHS
His mother, and mine, worked at S. Paul Ward for many years...he was on the SP Ward Little league team.
We spent many years in South Pasadena, appreciating all it had to offerr.
A wonderful soul, now departed...but watching over us, all.
