Dennis was raised in Salem and graduated from Salem High School. Following graduation, he proudly served his country in the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam era. His time in the service instilled in him a deep sense of duty and camaraderie that stayed with him throughout his life.

Dennis was a devoted husband to his wife, Denise, with whom he shared many wonderful years. Together, they built a life filled with laughter, love, and adventure.
A proud member of the American Legion in Pelham, Dennis valued the friendships and connections he made through his fellow veterans. He was an avid reader, loved spending time in the mountains, and was happiest when skiing or enjoying the great outdoors. Dennis also had a fondness for playing tennis, trying his luck at the casino, and cheering on his beloved New England Patriots.
Dennis will be remembered for his sense of humor and his ability for making people laugh. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
