A family note:

Glenis Fisk,

Dennis loved all sports, playing football, table tennis and boxing. He captained his football team, he played for Copleston. He also loved music of all types and had his own drum kit. He particularly liked the piece of music Polonaise by Chopin. He loved the RAF and would have probably made it his life’s career.
