Thank you to all who came out for “Golf with Dennis” at Pine Barren Golf Club in Jackson. It was a beautiful day honoring our fallen heroes, veterans, and deployed soldiers in Dennis’ honor. We enjoyed the course with great friends and appreciate the many laughs and camaraderie – all for an
amazing cause!

“Why would you jump out of a perfectly good airplane?” is a question paratroopers often hear. There is no doubt that Dennis was probably asked that question a few times by his family before heading to Airborne School. And while I never heard his answer to the question, I can safely assume that his response would be, “why not?” while showing that huge smile of his.
