We were so sad to hear of Dennis's passing. He was a kind and humble man. We always enjoyed sitting and talking to him. He has a new body in heaven and no more pain. Prayers to his family. He will be missed.

I worked with Dennis back in 1997 at the factory. We always used to pick at him and get him riled up. He’d get mad and call us all names and walk off lol. I remember him and Earl going into Blue Ridge Restaurant all the time. Everyone loved this man. The people who worked with him loved him. He will certainly be missed. Rest In Peace, old friend. I know you and Earl are having the time of your lives now.

The Breakfast Club will never be the same, we are so glad to have known Dennis. May he rest in peace.

My heart is so sadden today hearing the news that Denis has passed over. I know him and Earl will be happy to be reunited again. I’m sending my love to the entire family. Such a great loss. Floyd loves you Denis.

Sure have enjoyed knowing Dennis through the years. He really had the best stories about his shirt factory work. I will really miss his sweet presence...

Family: So sorry for your loss. We will surely miss seeing Dennis! I have Alderman kin folks on my mother's side, & Dennis & I would talk a little about that from time- to -time, wondering if we were related somehow...

Phyllis, sad to learn of Dennis’s passing. I hope his last years were comfortable for him. My condolences.

So sorry for your loss, were all going to miss him.

So sorry for your loss, were all going to miss him.

I'm saddened to learn of the passing of Dennis, my friend from many years ago. I have known him most of my life, and I worked with him during my summer of 1966 job from college. I was fortunate to bump into him at the Blue Ridge one morning in August of 1999. Many prayers for his many friends and family members.

So sorry to hear bout Dennis passing I think of him often. He was good man heart of gold he will be missed with love tina

We have been so blessed to know him and he will be greatly missed. Prayers for the family.
