A wonderful, kind man...high school sweethearts and stayed friends throughout the years. Loved his family, sports, fishing and boating. Worked very hard to accomplish his law degree. So proud of him for that! Saddened by his loss.

Mr.Dennis O'shea was one of the smartest, sharpest, and wisest individuals, I had ever met! He was a mentor to me in this game called life. He stood for hard work and dedication, and was one of few left, from an outstanding generation! When will the torch be passed again? He will truely be missed!

I knew Dennis as a quiet, kind and generous person and a great son-in-law.
He volunteered many hours at his children's school and scouting events.
He enjoyed watching Bradley and Lauren play soccer and rarely missed a game.
Dennis had a love for music, fishing and was a avid baseball fan. He also was a whiz at Jeopardy.
You will be missed and loved by many, and will never be forgotten.

Dennis was a kind and caring husband and father. The most important thing in life to Dennis was his family. He loved God, his family and his country. His memory will live in our hearts forever.
