My condolences to the family on the passing of Dennis. He was a hard working, friendly colleague at Spotswood College. Many students who struggled with English benefited from his tuition and he was very popular with students and staff alike.
Rest in Peace

Thinking of you Chris and family. We caught up with Dennis at Weymouth eye centre awhile back and had a chat. Was great to see him. Our love and thoughts are with you all. Dennis was a great guy to work with and had a great passion for children with special needs.

My condolences to the Little family on the passing of Dennis.
My memories of the time I spent as one of the team at Roselyn are those of challenges lightened by the ever present compassion for others, the quick wit, mischievous sense of humour and the `twinkle in his eyes´ which Dennis bestowed upon students, parents and staff. RIP Dennis. Carol Willan

We are saddened to hear of Dennis' passing. He was a founding member of our organisation while the principal of Roselyn Special School. This was back in 1986. Dennis had all his pupils involved, and his great staff too. He had everyone in a bus to Hamilton or Hawkes Bay, or anywhere there was an event. And he drove the bus too! In fact, without Dennis I doubt if we would have got off the ground. Thanks Dennis. Some of his pupils are still involved.
Sincere condolences to Christine and family. Max Brooking, Chairman Special Olympics North Taranaki
