    What a co-incidence! Just yesterday I have gone through my wedding photo album to find some snap and within myself appreciated the quality of the photographs clicked by Dennis which still look so fresh after more than 34 years. And today this sad news! A very good photographer and a nice human being. May God give strength to the bereaved family to bear the heavy loss. May his soul rest in eternal peace. Williams

    My first and only contact with Denis Rego was 20 years ago when I retired to Mangalore after 40 years in Bombay. I wrote a series of articles in Daijiworld covering Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday to Easter. These articles needed visual support. Somebody suggested Denis Studio. Denis readily provided the required illustrations. My mission over, I returned to Denis Studio to pay for the photo prints. He said that he doesn’t charge for those who write on religious topics. Since then I have not met him till I read about his obituary in Daijiworld and his benign image revived the distant memory. May his soul rest in peace and may his bereaved family be consoled

    Shocking ...that Mr. Dennis is no more. Dennis was a gentleman in his professions and every sphere of his life. The decorum he had as a photographer , especially during religious ceremonies was commendable . Though Dennis the photographer is no more ,his model life photo will remain in many hearts.
