I wish to thank the 301st Rest'n Crew for attending the service in such good numbers.  It was good to see you again.  John Suggs, thank you for assisting Monica with the tasks that needed to be completed to take care of Dennis. A special thank you to Zippy for assuming the Chaplain duties on short notice and for doing such a find job.  Randy, thank you for stepping up to bringing the water.  As I stated to the friends at the end of the service, I am fortunate to have three families, my immediate one, My 301st family, and my PGR family.  To my PGR family thank you for being there, again, as I lay to rest yet another 301st retiree.

To the Air Force Honor Guard, I told you that retired Chief Adams who initiated the first Honor Guard would be there today...no pressure.  He told me afterward he was proud of you.  I am too.

Dennis, we are even now.
