Dennis Conway Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Jan. 28 to Jan. 29, 2016.
Rev. Dennis W. Conway, age 75, passed away Saturday, January 23, 2016.

Fr. Dennis was born on January 11, 1941 to the late Edward and Margaret Conway.

In 1968, Fr. Dennis was ordained a priest of the Comboni Missionaries, and his mission work took him to Uganda, the Philippines, Italy, and Canada.

He is survived by his dear brother, Kenneth Conway, many nieces, nephews, cousins, and devoted friend Wayne. He also leaves behind his religious community and many friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents, sister Eileen Purath, and sister-in-law Sharon Conway.

Mass of Christian Burial took place this morning at the Comboni Mission Center in Cincinnati, OH. Committal services will be held in the chapel at St. Joseph Cemetery, Monroe, tomorrow morning, Friday, at 11 am. Rupp Funeral Home assisted his religious order with local arrangements.

Memorial contributions may be made to the Comboni Missionaries.

Our deepest sympathy for the loss of Father Dennis Conway.

Fr. Dennis was and in our hears, still is a blessing to us all.
He helped our family during the good and bad times and his physical presence will be missed; but he will be looking over all from heaven.
Fr. Dennis was the priest and person that to anyone who met him wanted him to be one of their own family member and all of us thank the Good Lord for him being placed in our lives.

We are saddened by him physically leaving us; but he will live in our hearts and the memories will help us through our rough times.

Fr, Dennis, please look down and pray for us and thank you for being a part of all of our lives.

Fr. Dennis, you did good and rest in peace with our Heavenly Father.

We hold a special place in our hearts for Fr. Dennis. In his caring, funny and loving manner he helped bring the St. Michael Community into the FAMILY of God.
Before he left for the Philippines Fr. Dennis gave Jack his art brushes, he still has them and will cherish them even more now. With Caring thoughts,
Joann & Jack VanBenschoten
