Dennis C. McBreen passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on Sunday, August 31, 2025, at the age of 83. He was born to the late Lillian (nee Armbruster) and Charles McBreen on March 27, 1942, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Denny was the beloved husband of Sharon McBreen (nee Bemmes); loving father of Dave (Lisa) McBreen, Keith (Renee) McBreen, Julie (Kevin) Mazes, and Lori (Chris) Enginger; cherished grandfather of Erin (Steve), Matt (Rebekah), A.J., Maya, Drew, Carley, Sean, Claire, and Lucy; treasured great-grandfather of Penny; and dear brother of Karen (Bruce) Gehring, Gary (the late Diane) McBreen, and the late Bruce (Anne) McBreen. He is also survived by numerous loving nieces, nephews, and extended family members.
Denny will be remembered for his unconditional love and ability to put the needs of others before his own. He was an incredible family man who especially cherished his role as a grandfather. He could often be found on the sidelines of a sporting event or the rows of a recital, beaming with pride over his grandchildren. Denny was an avid reader, enthusiastic traveler, and a private pilot. He loved traveling with his family, especially to the beach, where they captured precious moments on film that he would later use to create memory albums to share. In addition, Denny was a proud graduate of Roger Bacon High School (Class of 1960) and enjoyed cheering on the Spartans. He will be missed tremendously not only by his family, but all blessed enough to have known him.
