Ron and Joann ErtnerCindy and family: saddened to hear of the passing of Dennis. He was often in our thoughts, as we fondly remember the many wonderful years as neighbors in Montello. The stories often focus on Dennis, and his humor. He had a huge heart and and bigger than life personality. I know we have lost contact but our thoughts and prayers are with you in these times of grief.
