Frank and Alice Rideout, Oakville, ON.
We were saddened to learn of Dennis's passing and extend our deep sympathy to Joyce and the family.
We first met Dennis in Ottawa in the 1960s. I worked with him again in Montreal in the 1980s and in Toronto in the 1990s. Dennis had a keen intellect, which he was always willing to share in the spirit of cooperation and good humor. He was a gifted artist, I still have several quick renderings, hanging on my workshop wall, which he did, to kid me about a project I was heading up at the time, I recall our bull sessions in the Orient Express, at PVM in Montreal, where he argued that if a bottle of vermouth happened to be open in the same room, his drink was not dry enough.
