Tracey Lennox
H/C and longtime friend - Moose Jaw, SK: My hugs to you all at
such a difficult period in your lives. I look forward to the day when we
can reminisce our memories together and laugh once again, but now is a
time of healing. We will all miss Dennis. He was a special man. A
special Husband, a special Father, a special Brother, and a special
Friend. He touched many, many lives in his short time here, and he was
very special to our Family. Thank You Linda, Dennis, Mark & Scott
for allowing us to share in your lives since the 70's!! That's a
long time. May we continue on this journey with Dennis in our hearts.

Moose Jaw, SK: My heart goes out to you in your loss.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sue Truscott -
Chilliwack, BC: We first met Linda as a young and bubbly school
teacher across the road from us. We met Dennis shortly thereafter,
and so began a lifelong friendship. I will never forget how much
in love they were, and it was a shining example to me as a young
teenager. She would call him "honey" and he would
inevitably answer, "Yes, peanut butter?" The last time I
saw Dennis was when I went home to Saskatchewan in April, and they were
still obviously happy-go-lucky and in love despite the agonizing
circumstances. (((((((((((Hugs)))))))))))) Linda, and Dennis... we
will never forget you.
Dan & Lorraine
Lennox - Lake Errock, BC: Linda, Scott and Mark, our thoughts
have been with you and Dennis throughout the years we have known you,
and want you to know that we are thinking of you now. I still tear
up thinking about the journey your family has had to take and the loss
you have had to suffer, and I wish you and the boys peace of mind and
heart now, knowing that the husband and father that did so much for you,
and whom you did so much for, is in a better place now. Thinking
of you...Dan & Lorraine and kids
Diana Humenick -
Moose Jaw, SK: Linda, so sorry to read of Dennis's death. His
long fight is over. Wish I could be there for you. Take care
of yourself. "Within the embrace of family we discover the sharing
of life's most precious legacy. It is here we learn to love and to be
loved, and to understand the meaning of listening hearts, outstretched
hands, and the song of joy and laughter. The beauty of family brings us
cherished memories we wish to hold forever, for it is through our
memories that our hearts find their way home." ~flavia
