What he loved the most was riding his motorcycle, walking his dogs and getting together with his family every Wednesday and Sunday for dinner and loud conversations.
Dennis was loved by everyone he knew. He was a wonderful husband, father and grandfather. He was the cornerstone of the family, always providing them with love, strength, advice and an occasional kick in the pants.
