A comrade noted Dennis's passing by adapting lines penned by Henry Kendall more than a century ago:

Old bright memories shine apace;

But sunny dreams in shadows end,

Cruel time now hides the faded face

Of our heroic friend.

So let him sleep, whose life was hard!

Fond memories in abundance save,

And place the rose of our regard

Upon his tranquil grave.
