Here is Dennis being very serious in his role as a seti mod. I am absolutely devastated and shocked at the news of his death.... That was probably one of my posts he was modding. :) Glad we made amends. The strange thing is, on Christmas morning, I kept accidentally pressing "Dogbytes" instead of "Dad" when I was trying to call my Dad on Skype. Maybe I should have let it keep ringing. We might have known sooner that something was wrong. Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes. ID: 701992 ·

I spoke to him once on the phone. He had a warm and friendly way of being and was one of those people who made you feel immediately at ease. I'll miss him because he often stopped us in our tracks and then some how made us sparkle with his very own sense of humour.. Dogbytes Forever ID: 702236 ·

I'm glad that he was able to find "family", though not by blood relation but by those who will cherish the memories of him. It is good to know that he made a positive impact on so many people's lives. I think that is more notable than a plaque on a building's cornerstone any day." PROUD TO BE TFFE! ID: 702237 ·

"I will always remember you!" Your grumpy old friend from Scotland FatB ID: 702824 ·
