<p><u>In Memoriam</u></p>
<blockquote class="quote">
As Dennis's siblings, Lynn, John and Bill Ritchie--on behalf of the entire Ritchie family--we wanted to convey to all of you how deeply moved, astonished and appreciative we are of the loving tributes to Dennis that we have been reading. We can confirm what we keep hearing again and again:<br><br> Dennis was an unfailingly kind, sweet, unassuming and generous brother--and of course a complete geek. He had a hilariously dry sense of humor and a keen appreciation for life's absurdities--though his world view was entirely devoid of cynicism or mean-spiritedness.<br><br>We are terribly sad to have lost him, but touched beyond words to realize what a mark he made on the world and how well his gentle personality--beyond his accomplishments--seems to be understood.<br><br><p class="text-left"><i>-- Lynn, John and Bill Ritchie</i></p>
