Friends, family remember Gilmore
Karen Gilmore, wife
âDennis was such a character - dry wit, boundless energy, always available to help others, a builder of people. He had an uncanny ability to see raw potential, especially in young actors and draw it out by being a safety net to build confidence. He was so often taken for granted and worked so hard behind the scenes willingly sharing the spotlight for the benefit of the individual and betterment of the organization - whichever organization. Not a saint, definitely opinionated, but always generous of heart and forgiving. I m going to miss him so much. As others have expressed on Facebook, My life has been immeasurably enriched for having known him, for being loved by him and being carried into new ventures because of his creative energy, insight and willingness to make the thing happen. And then, having made the commitment, absolutely refusing to fail.â
