Dennis graduated from Hutchinson High School. He worked the Dillons perishable warehouse for twenty years. Dennis also worked at Underground Vaults and Storage. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, and rock music.
Dennis had a unique sense of humor that could light up a room. He enjoyed making people laugh. Dennis always had a smile on his face. He had an enormous heart and never met a stranger. He was close with God regularly reading on not only how to better his relationships, but also himself. He was a work in progress, but never forgot those closest to him. He was proud of his family and especially his children and grandchildren. He will be deeply missed and never forgotten. The memories we all shared will be cherished forever.
