Dennis Murphy Obituary
Dennis Patrick Murphy
Born to eternal life on December 18th, 2023 at the age of 64 years. Beloved husband of Judith (nee Gahn) for 37 years. Loving father of Chris (Christina), Joseph (Veronica), Monica and Sarah Murphy. Proud Daideo of Olivia, Camila, James and Claire. Cherished son of the late Rita Murphy and Thomas (Bette Jo) Murphy. Dear brother of Katie (Jeff) Schoo and Amy (Peter) Bigelow. Further survived by relatives and friends.
Dennis was a graduate of UW Eau Claire. He had retired as CFO of DHI Corp in Mequon. While his professional accomplishments were many, he will mostly be remembered as a selfless man of faith and family, with a passion for the Green Bay Packers, golf and a strong cocktail. Thank you God for every minute that he was in our lives.
