Candace Williams I’d like to send my deepest condolences to Dennis’ family, friends and caregivers. I’ve known Dennis for over a year through his day program at the hub and he’s put a smile on my face when I saw him everyday. I always looked up to Dennis as an older brother because of the way he treated me! He had the upmost respect for myself and his collages at the Hub! Thanks for being in my life, Dennis. Love you lots!!
From your buddy,
Candace Williams

Jim Halicki Norm and Jean,
I have had the honour to know Dennis for 10 years. The reason I came back to The Heights was because of Dennis. He was never anything but a kind and gentle soul and I am so sorry for your loss. He made us all smile and laugh constantly.
You are great parents and people and thank you for allowing me to be a part of his and your lives.
Norm & Jean
Sorry to hear about Dennis. My heart goes out to you and the family and may your memories help you get through this sad time.
Mike and Diana
