Dear Ruth and Family

Our thoughts and prayers go to you and all of Denny's family. I've spent much time reminiscing our great times growing up together thru grade and high school. Denny was my best friend thru those times and I know how much you must miss him. He could brighten your day with his great sense of humor or by just being Denny. The Lord created a gem in him and now he is in the Lord's arms. God Bless You All. Dave

I am so sorry for your loss.  My thoughts and prayers to the Breza family. 

Dear Ruth, Jeremy, Julie, Janel, and Tony.

As I sit her thinking about Denny and what he meant to us, so much emotion comes out from our hearts.  He was the one person that was so passionate about family and kept it sacred and one of the most important things in his life.  Denny had his priorities straight.  Denny was someone that we admired and truly loved.  Denny loved unconditionally and showed that love and commitment every time we talked to him, were with him and interacted with him.  I will miss his humor and his laughter.  He was such a funny man.  Denny was such a blessing to so many.  His care and concern for all of us placed him in such a special place in our hearts.  We will all be better going forward due to knowing him and keeping his spirit and mission of love and friendship alive.

We all loved Denny! 

We love each of you and send our hugs and prayers.

Dear Ruth and family--

I was so very shocked and saddened to hear of Denny's passing. Although I did not know him well personally, I got to know the wonderful man he was through you, Ruth. The love you shared and the battles you fought together were an inspiration to me. Jeremy and Janelle, how blessed you were to have a Dad like Denny, who loved you unconditionally and was so proud of you. I hope you all can treasure the memories and find confort in knowing that Denny is at peace, happy and healthy in the arms of our Lord. My thoughts and prayers will be with you during this difficult time.

I was so sorry to hear about Denny - I always will have a smile on my face when I look back at all the years I worked with Dax at Red Owl.  Both of you were always a joy to be around.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all.  Mary Seeger

Ruth & Family,

My deepest sympathies to you and your family during this time of sorrow.  May you keep the memories you have made with your husband and father for the years to come and treasure them daily.  God bless his memory.

We are so sad to hear of Denny's passing.  He was such a fun spirit who seemed to look past all the struggles life sent his way and instead find a reason to laugh, tease and tell jokes.  What a special person and so fun to be around.  He will be deeply missed at family gatherings as he was there for all our kids birthdays and years and years of family holidays.  We are very sorry for your loss.  With love, Laurie K. and family

We are so very sorry to hear of Denny's passing.  He's always a friendly smile in the neighborhood.  We will keep you all in our prayers.
