So sorry to hear the sad and shocking news. Dennis, I remember how happy you were when you came to Colorado Springs after you got married in Sturgis. I wish you could have had many more years together. Gay was so good to her family and will be missed very much. Wish I could be there to share this time and give you all a hug. Much love, Cousin Kathie in Colorado Springs.
