Dennis Russell Gamble, 79, passed away Friday, February 17, 2023.
A service will be held at a later date in Colorado.
Dennis was born and raised in Carlisle, IA, where he graduated from Carlisle High School. He attended Drake University before joining the US Army during the Vietnam War.

For a number of years, he owned and operated his own medical laboratory, Fort Collins Clinical Laboratory, and later retired from Banner Hospital in Loveland, CO. In retirement, Dennis and his wife moved to Winterville, NC. He was an avid golfer, but his greatest joy was spending time with his family.

I´m so sorry for your loss, Dennis was the best boss, mentor and the heart of the lab. He taught me so much and I am the phlebotomist I am today because of him!!
