    bob and I are saddened by the passing of our good friend Dennis Preston. Dennis was such a great person. we were neighbours for 25 years on baird st.I know he has left his family with many great memories.

  2. Dennis was a good friend to the Bruton family for many many years. He was especially supportive of our brother John and we thank him for that. I know that he will be sorely missed by all who knew him. My deepest sympathies to his family.

Please know that I am thinking about you as a family and that I know your wonderful memories of your Dad will be with you forever. Great picture of Dennis and I will always remember him as being a wonderful Dad and boy did he ever love you kids. I was 13 years old when I started to babysit you kids. I remember the first day like it was yesterday. Yours in friendship, Lynn Dobson xoxo

    Dear Mike, Steve, Colleen and families,
    We were so sorry to hear of Dennis’ passing. He was a kind, generous and loving man. I have many good memories of all that he did for our family over the years – Sunday school, youth leader, positive person. He gave of himself selflessly, particularly to our brother, John.
    He always had a smile and kind words whenever I saw him over the years..
    I know that you will all miss him terribly, but know that many will remember him fondly and are thankful that he was part of our lives.
    Liz and Greg
