Jack Fishburn recieved a messae from Paula Underwood who was Dennis Higgerson stepdaughter. She informed Jack that Denny had passed away at the beginning of July, 2015. I will try and find and obiturary to add to his memorial page.
I hung out a lot with Denny in high school, baling hay on my dad's farm and playing chess. The summer after HS graduation we got so interested in chess that we would even play over the phone without a chessboard - "Pawn to King's Bishop three." - "You can't do that, your Knight's on that square!" We were roommates our sophomore year 1970-71 at the U of Iowa, always got along well and had a lot of good times together.
