Dennis finally recognized Philander as his father after decades of going on the record to say he didn’t have a father.
Philander was known for having 29 children with 16 women but tried his best to get back on his feet by establishing a small burger joint.
His grandchildren are now appealing to Dennis for help for his burial and other related expenses.
