Dear Shirley:
Tonight I watched the memorial service of your dear husband Dennis. It was a beautiful service and a wonderful tribute to Dennis. I so enjoyed all the music and I was especially moved by the German song that was sung at the end of the service. I had not heard that song for many, many years and just recently that song had come to my mind. And then tonight when I heard the song sung, it brought tears to my eyes as I remembered my dad sitting up in the balcony of the NUMC singing this congregational song. I remembered it being one of his favorites as well. Thank you for sharing this memorial service via the internet. May the Lord strengthen you in the days ahead! We extend our deepest sympathy. Louise (& Barry) Wilding

Dearest Shirley, over the Covid months I have thought of Dennis needing isolation to overcome his illness. My prayers were with him and your family, especially your granddaughter who adored him. I am sorry for this season of bitter/sweet joy your family is experiencing.

My deepest condolences to the family on your loss of Dennis. It was a pleasure to have known him through my work as a septic system inspector with the Region. Dennis was always smiling and quick to share that the sun was always shining in beautiful Niagara-on -the-Lake.

Shirley, Jake and Denise and families. I was shocked to hear the news of Dennis’s passing. His smile and laugh often helped get through some long town council meetings. He always spoke from his heart and wanted to help the agricultural community and when he could the whole town in anyway. He will be missed by all those lives he touched. I am sure God has a special job for Dennis.

To the entire Dick family we send our Sincere Condolences for your loss of a caring, loving and compassionate family man.
I enjoyed working with Dennis as a Former Fire Chief of NOTL and could always count on his honesty, integrity and vision for the unexpected.
I had the pleasure and privilege of knowing Dennis. I'm sure the Lord has chosen him for a task that no other person has the ability or patience to complete.
May he rest in Peace, his job on this earth as we know is done with the greatest of honor.
