Dennis worked in Mechanical Aerospace for over 46 years. He proudly served his country in the United States Navy for nearly 20 years much on the U.S.S. Constellation. He was stationed throughout the world serving in highly classified projects, including now declassified Operation Teapot. Dennis was very humble man; a jokester with a heart of gold that touched everyone he knew. Blessed with very high intelligence and a creative mind, he put it all to use to serve our Lord and His people, his family and even his fellow servicemen by building stereos for his shipmates. Dennis played many musical instruments, also built his own organ and tried his hand at composing an opera for the Sermon on the Mount.
