Oh my God, what a sad loss it is to hear of Dennis's passing. Ten years ago Dennis was the one that took me up for my first introduction ride when I was still a Couper wannbe. My first Nationals was sharing a dorm room with him and Bill Coons at Mason. Dennis had an infectious personality that you couldn't help but liking. Bumping into Dennis at various flyins was always like old home week. Since my first flight with Dennis I have owned several Coupes and have now flown six different ones. I will truly miss him. My deepest condolences to his son and family. Joe Czaplicki
