I am deeply saddened to learn of Denis´ passing. He was a gentleman. I recall him speaking easily and always thoughtfully to a wide range of matters. In short order he could also deliver a ribbing or quip alongside a warm hearted chuckle. I will forever remember the kindness he showed me as a very young man and frequent visitor to St. Kilda, now almost 50 years ago. My thoughts are with the Power family.

Ted.
