I had reconnected with Dennis by telephone after more than 45 years only days before his illness. We had a great phone conversation and Dennis had told me that he and a close friend would plan to visit me sometime during the Christmas/New Year holidays. I was disappointed that I did not hear from them. I was crushed to get the call from the friend that Dennis had passed away. Glenn Fuller, former teacher, Five Points High School
