Denny was very active on Facebook a few years ago so I "friended" him. he was the only ex-ball player I ever friended because we had a mutual acquaintance that I wanted to ask him about. he would regularly comment on my posts much like an old friend would and it was interesting to ask him an occasional question about his experiences and get a straight answer from him. I made a comment about myself being grossly overweight once and I woke up the next morning to a Facebook Messenger message from Denny letting me know that he was once very overweight and went through the weight loss surgery process which was apparently once very successful for him. He told me of what he found were the pros and cons of the surgery and even offered to hook me up with his doctors as he felt they were excellent.

He didn't have to reach out to me like he did with an unsolicited testimonial and a genuine care for my health which I always very much appreciated. Sure, he was a turd of a guy at one time but I have always been taught to forgive especially when someone has paid their debt to society. I just see him now as a older gentleman with some great stories and seems to be somewhat lonely after the loss of his wife not long ago. I wish him well.
