As a child Dennis aspired to be a carpenter and was never far from his hammer, screw driver and pliers. Always a hard worker, Denny and his brother Dick built a local paper route into a large enterprise. Before either of them could drive they bought a truck from the proceeds of the business and expanded their delivery service.

After the early passing of his father Frederick and mother Stella when he was only 16 Denny forged on, marrying his high school sweetheart Carol at age 20 and starting his family. He put himself through college, earning a degree in engineering and masters degree in engineering management.

He held numerous positions with a variety of companies, eventually becoming a CEO. His hard work enabled him to retire early and he spent the rest of his days caring for and enjoying the loves of his life, his wife, children, grandchildren and his hobbies, fishing and woodworking.

His grandchildren were comforted in heirloom cradles he crafted as he is now comforted in the arms of our loving Father.

The family will receive friends Thursday, February 27 from 10:00-11:00 AM at the Westbrock Funeral Home, 5980 Bigger Road, Kettering. Interment to follow at Centerville Cemetery.
