ReplyDeleteDennis and I were born the same year (1950) and pretty much grew up together on 4th Street in San Dimas, until he and his family moved. Several years back we reconnected through Social Media and I have enjoyed sharing old memories and family stories with him. He was way too early for him to go and I will miss him terribly. Rest In Peace, Dennis. Love you, Sally (Foster) Gebhardt.
