My condolences on the passing of my friend Dennis Gillies.I met him over 60 years ago when the four of us, Arlene,Patricia and I attended a LIMELIGHTERS folk group concert in Saskatoon. I overnighted with him at his parent’s home in Rosetown. Over the years we kept in touch because we share the same birthday (Dec/28). We also worked on projects together and I admired his dedication to the task at hand and his ability to analyze a problem. I admired his craftsmanship and innovative ideas in his home and work projects. Mostly I will miss his friendship and his great sense of humour. Rest in peace my friend.

Dennis L O V E D Canadian Tire. He pored over each new flyer that came out - like kids used to do when the Sears Christmas catalogue arrived. Even more than perusing the flyers, Dennis enjoyed strolling the isles of the store itself - checking out new items and sometimes even replacing things he already owned in favor of ‘newer and better’ OR - ‘more is better’! He particularly liked Micro Fiber Cloths and often purchased more because they were on sale, or made in new colors or different sizes - even though Arlene told him he had a whole box of new ones in the garage. Canadian Tire will miss him, as will we all.
Love, John and Dalphine

I don't recall a moment from my adolescence through to maturity that I had seen anything but a smile on his face and cheer in his voice.
He will be sadly missed.

Denny and Arlene have also been there for me and my family when ever we needed them. We used to enjoy staying with them while in Sutherland and had many fine evenings with them. When Mom and Dad had to go to live in a retirement home and I had to sell their house though I live in ON, Denny came over with his trailer and helped Rob and I load my parents stuff and move it to storage. Luisa and I will miss Dennis very much. All the best to Arlene and their grandchildren. Love Glen and Luisa

Dear Arlene and Family,
We were saddened by hearing of the passing of Dennis. We only knew him for a few years but greatly enjoyed his company. He always chatted up a storm and we very much enjoyed the stories of his life. He was interesting and could spin a great yarn! We loved him. He was a great neighbour and friend.
He was a very determined man which we could see by his daily walks. We particularly enjoyed running into him at the mail box. We enjoyed the hospitality at his home, sharing a beer or cider. Dennis was a good host along with Arlene.
God bless and keep you all in this difficult time. He was a good man and a true pleasure to share stories with.
With condolences,
Nina and Laszlo
