The King arrives complete with Crown and then later chats up his brother Doug. His presence was appreciated especially.

| For Dennis' 70th birthday,
wife Deborah with much help from daughters Andrea and Tami,
son, Rob and sister Nancy (assisted by her husband Tom), put
together a wonderful celebration befitting his long
life, many jobs and complex social interactions. Set forth below are a selection of pictures (hundreds were taken) and links to power points put together by Deb (with help from Tami) and Andrea (with help from James). Son Rob (with input from many) compiled a set of memories from the many facets of Dennis' life which has been scanned and a link is provided to this as well. Pictures by Deb and Tom. |

| Nancy and Tom Bodziak
provided wonderful music while the three beauties, from
left: Shannon Sheridan, Tami Loya & Andrea Morgan
listened and the boys (from left: Michael Sheridan, Charlie
and Jack Morgan and Danny Loya probably weren't! Danny's
ten-year old sister. Sarah, called the room "the crazy
place" largely because of the boy's (and Micheal's big
sister, Kyleigh's) noisiness. |
 |
|
| Much fun was had by all
and great conversations abounded perhaps assisted by spirits
but fueled by love of family as well. On the left are
some of the revelers: Tami. Dennis. Deb, Andrea and
Rob. On the right, the DeLong boys chat it up. |
 |
 |
| There were many special
moments throughout the weekend. One of these moments,
depicted on the left is Rob DeLong presenting a song he
composed about one of Dennis' ex-girlfriends who will not be
named but was reputed to have tortured him more than most of the females Dennis escorted (See the list compiled be Deb in the power point she and Tami prepared). On the right is the wonderful Birthday Cake Andrea provided. |

| As implied by Sarah's "Crazy
Place" comment, kids were a big part of the Birthday
weekend. Below are two pictures that capture some of the
flavor of the kids' presence. On the left is a view of
Andrea judging New Year's Posters the kids prepared. On the
right, is a shot taken on the Smithsonian lawn -
notice the dancer, Kyleigh Sheridan - where do you think
those genes came from? On the left, other than Andrea,
the kids are (from the foreground & then to the right):
Charlie Morgan, Kyleigh Sheridan, Sarah Loya, Jack Morgan,
Danny Loya & Michael Sheridan. On the right, other
than dancer Kyleigh, the kids from the left are: Michael
Sheridan, Jack Morgan, Danny & Sarah Loya and Charlie
Morgan. These kids all are vital! |
