Dennis, much loved son, brother, uncle, great uncle and friend passed away at the Battlefords Union Hospital on December 30, 2022 at the age of 71.

Dennis grew up on the family farm where he worked with his dad and brothers. He also spent a brief period drilling water wells and working in the oil & gas industry before becoming ill. Den spent the majority of his life in Saskatchewan Hospital in North Battleford. That didn’t stop him from enjoying life as much as possible, he made the most of the cards delt to him which included travel to New Zealand/Australia, trips to the lake with family, many home vacations for holidays and harvest, and we can’t forget the day trips to Country Cuisine where he enjoyed a good steak. Dennis was a real entrepreneur at heart, as he had dreams of being an oil tycoon with rigs all over the world, as well as owning a construction company building skyscrapers, and being the biggest farmer in Saskatchewan. His dream was to be his own boss, with unlimited money, and having many employees. Dennis was a gentle giant with a huge, kind, generous and loving heart. He made an impact on people he met wherever he went with his kind loving nature, love of life, and great sense of humor. Another of his dreams was to be married and have at least 20 children. He loved children, especially his nieces and nephews and their children.
