As some of you already know, friends and family of Denny are more than welcome to contribute articles to the blog. This is by no means a closed endeavor. You don’t need to feel obligated to write something for the blog – it is a difficult thing to do when you sit down to really think through it. To write is to reflect. To reflect is to comprehend. To comprehend is to make it a part of you. And making this subject a part of you is a large leap to undertake.
That being said, one more brave soul is taking that leap this week. The following was sent in by Jessica Sensenstein:
My 2nd Dad
Contributed by: Jessica Sensenstein
I have known Denny Parsons since I was 11. I met Jessica his oldest in the 6th grade and we instantly became best friends. I started going over to their house all the time. Denny soon became like a second dad to me. Denny is the type of person that makes you feel so comfortable and you can tell him everything. He is like a big kid. My high school years were very tough for me and Denny was there. He opened up his heart and home for me. Every weekend Jessica, I and some other girls were always over there and he would make breakfast for us and Pat from down the street would come down. They were my second family. Jessica and I would go down to Pats and goof off, and then we would steal, I wouldn’t say steal but borrow some of Pats stuff in his garage when he wasn’t home. It was so funny and he knew it was us and Denny got a big kick out if it!! No matter what I had problems with I could always go to Denny, if I ever needed anything. In December 2005 my dad died and Denny was there. I know my dad is up there looking down and is ok that Denny has become my second dad. No matter what kind of day I had Denny could always make me smile and anyone for that matter. Denny is an amazing guy and I know this is hard for him and everyone close to him, but I know he will fight his hardest. I honestly don’t know where I would be with out Denny and Jessica. I love you Denny!!
