It is with a great sadness that that we say goodbye to Red Cross disaster action team member and dispatch volunteer Denny Smith, who passed away in late September. For the past 14 months Denny had been fighting a courageous battle with brain cancer, a fight that he did not give up easily.
After his retirement from law enforcement, Denny started volunteering on the Red Cross Emergency Medical Services Team with his wife, Karen, and in 2009, became one of our most active disaster responders. With his cheerful spirit, wonderful sense of humor, and passion to serve, Denny promptly became a valuable teammate and friend to many of us.
Denny remained active during the early stages of his brain cancer, often sending email updates, and attending meetings to stay connected with the group.
Denny is dearly missed and our hearts go out to his grieving loved ones.
American Red Cross 
We are blessed he was in the Red Cross family. RIP
