My sincere condolences to the family of Denis. If it were possible I would attend his funeral today, but I can say that in my experience he was one of the finest managers in the Snap-on Organisation. I am only sad that I was unable to spend any further time with him after my last visit in 2019. A true gentleman and a great pleasure to have known him.

I was blessed to have worked in Snap-on Tools' accounting Department under Denis. As good a golfer that he was, he was an even better man. My condolences to Lynn and all of Denis family at his passing.
