My dear Dennis, you trained me as a bellboy at the Powers Hotel in Fargo, ND, just months before entering the monastery. I always admired your kindness, good sense of humor and sweetness to everyone. Thank you for teaching me so much more than just being a bellboy! God bless you and be in peace, my friend.
