He continued to serve his country after discharge, working for the United States Postal Service for over 37 years.

Dennis loved to laugh and joke around with those he encountered. He kept the good times rolling for all involved. He would make everyone feel welcome and important, regardless of what they looked like or where they came from. Dennis would give someone in need the shirt off his back or the last dollar in his pocket.
Dennis loved watching Westerns and listening to music from different genres. He was a huge fan of the Seattle Seahawks as well as the New York Knicks. Dennis enjoyed playing sports, too. He was part of the Two & A Bar-B-Que baseball crew. He enjoyed eating good food and big laughs. He often shared both with those around him. The life of the party indeed.
