The Alabama Gang has lost another of our own. Steel player Dennis Sanford passed this morning after a very brief illness. Our prayers are extended to his wife, Rita and step-son, Bubba.
We are really gonna miss him!

I just got word about Dennis. I'm so sorry to hear this. We spent some very good times together with all our friends from my very special home state, Alabama. Good, good folks.

I'm sure Dennis didn't always wear that big, bear hug smile, but it's the only expression I ever saw on him. I'll think of him always that way. And, I'll look forward to seeing that same smile, all glorified, one day when we meet again....

Lord, bless and keep Rita and all of Dennis' loved ones in your loving care,

Laney
