Visit the Pagenkopf Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.
Dennis John Zenoni, 75, passed away on October 14, 2023 with his beloved wife, son, and daughter by his side. Dennis was born on February 5, 1948 to Robert and Jeanette Zenoni in Racine, WI.
Dennis is survived by his wife of 49 years, Darlene. His son Brad (Tracy) Zenoni and daughter Nicole Zenoni. His grandchildren Abigail, Haleigh, and Trevor. He is also survived by his brothers James (Sandra) Zenoni and Michael (Mary Lou) Zenoni. He is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Dennis is preceded in death by his father Robert Zenoni Sr., his mother Jeanette Zenoni, and his brothers Robert Zenoni Jr., Mark Zenoni, and Jeff Zenoni.
Dennis was a staple of the Midwest music industry for over 50 years. He was a talented drummer in several bands (The Triumphs and The Rivieras). The Triumphs had their biggest moment by making it onto the Ted Mack show. He eventually went to go work with his father and brothers at the family business, Uncle Bob's Music Center. Dennis has often been referred to as the "go to" guy for everything musician related.
Aside from being an icon in the music industry, Dennis had many other hobbies and interests. He was an avid boater, enjoyed trips to Lake Geneva, putting together model boats and trains, going for long drives on Sundays in the winter, and spending time with his family and friends.
A celebration of Dennis' life will take place on October 27, 2023 from 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM at Pagenkopf Funeral Home (2228 N. Silver Maple Ln.) with a service to follow. After the service, the family invites you to join them in the banquet room for refreshments and hor'dourves. Dennis will be laid to rest at Wisconsin Memorial Park in a private family ceremony.
(Location of Pagenkopf Funeral Home: We are located just South of Aurora Summit Hospital, east on Delafield Road)

Dear Family of Dennis,
I'm sorry this is late. Please accept my sympathy on your loss. I visited Dennis many times at Uncle Bob's. He was always kind and friendly. I bought lots of band gear from him in the earlier years. I offer my prayers for the repose of his eternal soul. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. Please take comfort in the great hope that Dennis has heard those wonderful words, "Well done good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of your Father's house."
