Dennis was able to meet up with two of his best friends from high school this past Monday. Stephanie (brunette) and Caya (blond) met up with him at Chuck-a-Rama in Draper. Dennis and I have gotten together with Caya and her husband Mark quite a few times as they love to race their motorcycles at the Larry H. Miller raceway here in Utah. I was excited to meet Stephanie finally. She lives here in Utah but we've never gotten together. But of course things didn't work out because I had to take Ethan to his driving school and then wait an hour or so before I had to go pick him up. Dennis said it was so fun to just sit and gab about the old days and reconnect to these two. I know they both helped him through high school to be better than he was. Dennis spoke to the Young Women at Girls Camp about Caya. She was Jewish and knew Dennis was a "Mormon". One day Dennis was playing basketball and getting frustrated. He let some words fly that he shouldn't have and she spoke up and said, "I thought you were a Mormon!" Dennis said it really hit him to his core and made him want to be a better person. As he was leaving for his mission, he felt impressed to give Caya a Book of Mormon. She was leaving for the Army as he was leaving for Argentina. She read it and joined the church. (Dennis also had a girfriend join and a good guy friend). I know Stephanie was a good friend through school too and he is grateful for both of these girls for their good influence in his young life. I am too because I love the man that Dennis is!!
