Lorian Tarver wrote a sympathy message

“Dennis, it has been so long since I left home but some of my fondest memories was of your mom and dad, and their dogs Ginger and Dobie. I spent days on the front porch and picking peas from the garden. Riding the tractor with your dad. My family will keep you and yours in prayer in this difficult time. Love, Lorian Tarver (Sanders) and family.”
