Sending you all love and caring. Lots of wonderful memories of Denis and Ron having such fun on the golf course, darts and working at NZ Railway. Deepest Sympathy June Goldsmith

My sincere condolences to Yvonne & family, of Dennis sad passing. Dennis was a very respected & well-liked person, we both worked in the NZR for many years having some great times with our fellow workmates! Allen Geros 2 Artists Ave 4210 Gold Coast Queensland

The Best Boss anyone could ever have. Denis, I always respected the great caring person you were, serious when you needed to be but a lot of fun and laughter was had too! Who could forget that laugh!! Our heart breaks for Yvonne and the family. Condolences to you all! Love Hoggies

Condolences to the family. My brother Dudley and I went through school up to high school with Dennis. We came from Onehunga

Very much loved brother-in-law of Sonia and Dennis, uncle of Mark and Hayley, Bridgette and Hamish and grand uncle of Hudson, Archie, Finnley, Mabel and Tully. We cherished his sense of humour and his epic laugh. He was always quick to step up with a helping hand and was an awesome husband, father and friend. Sorely missed.
