    Dear Maria, I just wanted you to know how terribly sorry I was to hear about the death of our dear friend and colleague Dennis. He was a wonderful person and touched many lives throughout his career at GSK. I always looked up to Dennis as a mentor and as an example of the type of person that I wished to be. Although our paths have not recently crossed, I wanted you to know that his friendly smile, his integrity and work ethic will not be forgotten! My life was enriched by knowing and working with him. With deepest sympathy, Jenny Lewis
