I admire and honour Dennis as a true servant and soldier of the Lord Jesus Christ. His passion for Gods work and witnessing was admirable and incredible to behold. His love for Jesus was clearly evident in all he did. He was a rare example of someone who stood unashamedly and unreservedly for Christ . My sincere condolences and sympathies and prayers go out to Lynette and the girls. May we all be inspired to press on in the Christian battle as Dennis did. Rest in peace dear servant of the Lord and you will soon hear the trumpet call of your beloved Saviour, calling you to your eternal reward

Elder Dennis Price is a man of God. He is committed to do His work. He has done a lot of things which only few of us can. This is my description of him. “Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬ and from EGW “The greatest want of the world is the want of men—men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. But such a character is not the result of accident; it is not due to special favors or endowments of Providence. A noble character is the result of self-discipline, of the subjection of the lower to the higher nature—the surrender of self for the service of love to God and man. The youth need to be impressed with the truth that their endowments are not their own. Strength, time, intellect, are but lent treasures. They belong to God, and it should be the resolve of every youth to put them to the highest use. He is a branch, from which God expects fruit; a steward, whose capital must yield increase; a light, to illuminate the world's darkness. Every youth, every child, has a work to do for the honor of God and the uplifting of humanity.” We will see you in that resurrection morning. Sleep for now Elder Dennis Price.

I have come to know Dennis's passion in sharing the Word and talking about Jesus's love for all mankind with people we met on the street. May the living God remember Dennis for his goodness and love. May our Lord shine his uplifting light on Lynnette and family, and friend and bless us all with the guiding Holy Spirit. Amen

I haven't met up with Dennis much at all over the last many decades, but when I did associate with him I was impressed with his spirituality, his love for the Bible, and his deep sincerity in all that he did. He was an example of a true Christian. My sympathies go to Lynette and their children for losing a wonderful husband and father too early in life.
