Not sure what to say?

He was my professor for geometry, the first course I had starting college after raising my children, to obtain a nursing degree. I found him to be a caring teacher who displayed a real love for education. My condolences to his family.

I worked with Denny at PNC. Amazing renaissance man. Fond memories of his quiet demeanor and intellectualism.

Lillie, I am sorry for your loss of Dennis. The first memory I have of Dennis is him walking the campus at Purdue while also reading a book.May our Lord wrap his arms around you and your family and give you comfort and peace.

Dennis shared an office with my father, Frederick R. Lisarelli, at PNW back when it was in its younger days and still called PNC. Dennis was also my algebra teacher for one semester--this was before he met and married Lillie. Later my father was Dennis's best man at his wedding to Lillie. These are my good memories of Dennis. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a good and gentle man.

Dear Lillie & Family, Dennis always shared his smile! It has been a blessing to recall times when we gathered as couples who had wives serving as School Nurses for Valpo Schools. More recently as retirees, showered there were more smiles during a visit to Charlotte, NC when we drove from our spot along Lake Hartwell, Anderson, SC. May memories of his smile enrich your journey in the days & years to come. Blessings, Jane & John Pinkerton

I have cleaned Dennis and Lillies home for the past couple years. I always admired the love they had for each other. I saw Dennis as a Very Kind Soul. His love for Reading, Music and Lillie carried him through life and now he is in the Trusting Hands of our Lord. Rest in Peace!
