It's been close to 30 years since we played golf and worked together. Rest in peace Dennis.

First worked with Dennis at Beaver Valley many years ago.
He had a heart of gold and a wonderful smile and I felt great working with him.
I will miss him alot.
My sincerest best wishes to his family and the many who cared about him.

I first met Denny at the Peach in the 70s. I always enjoyed being on site with him, that great smile was just the opening of a great personality and a great guy. Last time we crossed paths was at Waltz Mill in the early days of this millennium. So sad to realize we'll not work together again. RIP Denny, RIP.

As long as Ed Surmacz, Jerry Stenclik and I have known Stiney, he’s one of the few that everyone called a “good guy”.  I first met him through Eddie and Jerry as part of the Peach Bottom crew that annually “Myrtled” together and so stayed together.

I never worked with him in the field, but soon discovered his knowledge of tech craft was encyclopedic.  And he shared it with anyone who whoever was willing to listen; including a brand new GET instructor.  He was never condescending and was often the first (and only) to lend a hand when it was needed. 

His sense of humor encompassed his inevitable comparison to “Howdy Doodie”; both had ginger hair, round faces and perpetual "goofy"grins.  But the puppet’s smile was painted on; Stiney’s came from his heart. 

That's why it was always good when you saw Dennis coming.  He had a way of making everyone feel as if they were a good guy too.

Add the three of us to the list of those who miss him already.

I worked with Dennis many times and always found him to be a great co-worker.  Very knowledgeable, a great conversationalist and all around good guy.  We, the Nuke world, lost a great one.  RIP Dennis.

I don't think I knew when I first saw his name, that this was my good friend Stiney that I worked with for many years in PA.  He as WAY to young to go.  It's sad to know that I won't get to see him in the future.
