Dennis was a great guy!  I started riding 7 years ago and met Dennis through a mutual friend.  I was lucky enough to have rode with him in the past few years to Sturgis, Round Lake and St Victor.  He made me feel like I had been riding with him since his very first ride.  Really going to miss him!  Sincere condolences to all his family!

Dennis had the biggest heart of anyone I knew. He would do anything for ya if you asked . He loved to tease Bentley and thought he would make a great hockey player .lol He is going to missed by so many . Ride free big guy. Till we meet again .  Linda & Kevin

So sorry to hear of your loss. Spent many years in the oilfield with him. Rest in peace.   Bob and Peggy Brown

Trish and Kelly   My thoughts and prayers are with you. You guys are going through so much right now. Stay strong.







Our deepest sympathy Tara, Trisha and family, Dennis had a big heart always telling us like it was. As kids all of us cousins enjoyed our special occasions together at grandma’s; and on the farm even if it was  boxing matches, and playing games on one another. Dennis taught us to stand up for one another and be strong. Dennis will be missed. Loved the big guy!
Prayers fr Valerie, Dwight Hall & family 


Our deepest sympathy to all the family, a sad time for all.  May your cherish memories bring you lots love & laughter.  I remember Dennis always wearing his sandals it didn’t seem to matter what the weather.  

I got to know Dennis years back when he was a rig push. Had many laughs as we visited while I topped his rig tank. On the coldest January day Dennis would pop out of his shack in sweats a tshirt and more notably bare feet in sandals.  Had many Wednesday night rides and the odd trip on a weekend with Dennis and his  besty Helen. You will be missed big man! The ride now has no boundaries RIP old Friend 

Dennis took me to Sturgis first time in 2007

This old fella will be missed, his sense of humor,and tell ya like it is! The memories will forever have us chuckling! Rest peacefully Dennis!

I worked at skyline bar, Dennis would come in and play vlts, occasionally. If it wasn’t busy I’d go sit with him.  We’d take turns insulting each other And generally giving each other a hard time.  He was a nice guy and will be missed by many. I’m sure he and Helen are riding together again. 

Thank you for your calls and photos too.  I guess we aren’t meeting in Vegas - see you in heaven Dennis ❤️

A new friend, but a true friend...I have so many great memories, made in such a short time. Going to miss so many things about this crazy man!! Love you big guy, miss you so much already! My deepest sympathies to the family, and all of his friends whose hearts are hurting will this loss.😥

Our condolences on the loss of Dennis.  I remember all the good times playing together as kids on the farm.  Dennis always had a big smile with a great sense of humour. 
Our deepest sympathy,
Ron and Wendy Lesy and family

It’s extremely hard to only share one memory of Dennis. While out walking Dennis would idle along beside Grace and I in his truck and fill  us in on all the town news. He loved to try and swindle a jar of mustard bean pickle from me. In fact the last time I saw Dennis in Regina we talked about his love of mustard bean pickle on fresh boiled potatoes. Going to miss him!  Hugs girls.❤️

To many funny memories to share here but we worked together many times over the years.I am very sorry for your loss.

Dennis you have been a good friend for a long time, I’m going to miss you Bud. My condolences to the family

Well if there is one thing Dennis was, it was straight forward! He told it like it was, all language included...lol  He was always kind and made me laugh:)  my condolences to the family , such a sudden loss..  Dennis you will be sadly missed by all and your community.

He will be missed by all who knew him, and the kids around town will miss the candy man.
Thinking of family and friends at this time. You will have great memories to help you threw this.  

My deepest sympathies to Tara and Trisha and their loved ones.  I had the good fortune to run into Dennis this summer while home visiting and have a brief visit.   Wishing you all comfort during this difficult time.

This loss will hurt for a long time but your tears will turn to smiles as you remember times together.  A gentle giant off riding with Helen again. Cherish those memories
