Celebrating the Life of Denny Nov. 1947- May 2025.

Denny was a much-loved husband, father, grandfather, and friend. He'll be remembered with a smile for his big heart, generous nature, and easygoing personality. Born in Hamilton, Montana, to Ralph and Leona, Denny grew up alongside his brother Ray and sister Barbara. The three shared a close bond that lasted a lifetime and brought lots of laughter and memories. Denny proudly served in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War, something he carried with quiet pride throughout his life. He had a knack for working on Ford cars and trucks. He could build an engine from the ground up and loved every minute of it. He also enjoyed hunting and looked forward to fishing trips with friends every summer. Whether he was fixing a car, lending a hand, or sharing a story, Denny was always there for others. He had a way of making people feel welcome, and his kindness left a lasting mark on everyone who knew him. In 1999, Denny married Maria Cristina, and together they made every place they lived feel like home, with love at its center. He was a devoted dad and an adoring grandfather known affectionately as "Grampsie." His family meant the world to him. Denny brought light and laughter wherever he went, and while he'll be deeply missed, his memory will always bring joy.

Please join us in celebrating Denny's life on July 26, 2025, in Wisdom, Montana, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
