I served with Denny on the USS MORTON. We were both fire control technicians and good friends. My condolences to his family. He was a great guy. There are a couple of pictures of him in my book, THE SALTIEST SHIP IN THE FLEET.

I worked with Denny at Sammis Plant for many years. He was both a friend and mentor. He loved "Projects" whether at work or at home and always looked on the bright side of any situation. My deepest sympathies and condolences to Denny's family. Rest in peace "DenDen"

I am so sorry to hear of cousin Denny's passing. I actually only met him six years ago when my dad and I made a trip back to Toronto. Dick Bray is my dad. Denny was a lot of fun and very dear. I am so sorry for your loss.

our family just keeps getting smaller and smaller. I was raised by his cousin, Carl Bray, When we were kids Denny and Buzz Bray and I used to "hang out" I remember the good times we had when we were all together at Scottie and Floss Bray's for family get togethers. rest in peace Denny. May God be with the family you have left behind.
