Dennis Gorman

Dennis Gorman, 73, of Tulsa, OK, and formerly of Upton, MA, beloved husband, brother, father, and grandfather, was called to his eternal resting place on January 5, 2026. He entered this world on February 10, 1952, in Milford, Massachusetts, born to Edward and Aurelia Gorman.

Dennis is survived by his devoted spouse of 53 years, Paula Gorman; his son, Gregory Gorman and wife Carla; his daughter, Ali Knight and husband Ryan; and his cherished grandchildren, Chris, Rowan, Aurelia, Greg, Ben, and Lilli. He is survived by his siblings: Ted Gorman and wife Betsy, Kathleen Usher-DeMita and husband Jim, Mal Mooradian, Bill Gorman and partner Kevin, Jane Brochu and husband Dennis, brother-in-law Tom Grant and sister-in-law Leslie Wright along with 14 nieces and nephews whom he loved dearly.

He was preceded in death by his parents.

Dennis dedicated 41 years of his life to the same company, remaining loyal and hardworking through every change along the way. He began working at the age of 18, setting an example of integrity, commitment, and perseverance. He was the definition of a hardworking man and a true foundation of what it means to show up and provide.

A lifelong fan of New England sports, Dennis especially loved cheering on Boston teams. If disliking the New York Yankees could be considered a hobby, he would have mastered it. He enjoyed watching the news, golfing, and most of all, supporting his grandchildren at their sporting events. Dennis took great pride in caring for Paula and making sure his family was always taken care of.

Dennis was a wonderful father and an even prouder "Frumpa," as his grandchildren lovingly called him. He was adaptable, easygoing, and uncomplicated-a simple man with a sharp wit and a warm sense of humor. Sarcastic in the best way, he loved to laugh and make others laugh. He was a great listener who never needed to be the center of attention. Dennis was unselfish, always positive, deeply proud of his grandchildren, and found joy in listening to stories and looking through photos. He also took great pride in coaching both Ali and Greg in sports, creating memories that will last a lifetime. His family will remember him as someone who was always present.

A Celebration of Life will be planned at a later date.
