Mr. Dennis was best known for his kind heart and his ability to be a great caregiver, especially the care given to his mother, Udell, in her later years. He even received the nickname “Dr. Dennis” for his care given. He had the ability to make anyone laugh and never liked to see anyone cry. He was a jack of all trades, always using his gifts for building, maintenance, and crafting to help others. He made the best tea cakes taken from a family recipe. He enjoyed quiet time with his family. He enjoyed traveling and taking his motorcycle out on the road. He was a devoted member of Mendenhall Church of God, always serving faithfully. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, and son. He will be deeply missed by all those who knew him.
