After he graduated from Joliet West High School, he enlisted in the Army Reserves from March of 1971 to March of 1977. He was employed at Texaco Lockport Refinery in Lockport, Illinois until he was transferred to Houston, TX where he was employed by several oil companies.

Dennis had many passions in life which included volunteering for many causes and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. He loved garage sales, antiques, antique clocks, and to travel. He loved it so much that he started his own travel business where his clients became his close friends. Dennis was also a member of the American Legion Unit 305, The Woodlands, TX.

One of our greatest pleasures at TGI FRIDAYS was seeing Dennis and Peg come thru the front door! By far some of the greatest grand parents on the planet and also Dennis always thought of others more than he thought of himself. We will never forget you Dennis.
