Dennis was a very caring, loving man. He was easy to get along with, had a great sense of humor, enjoyed being with friends and family. We had many great times hanging out at Profennos. So much laughter! He didn’t mind being the brunt of a joke, he would be the first one to laugh at himself!! Damn…I’m going to miss that ❤️. You will be missed!
Love you! Dot and Butch❤️❤️😇
Dennis was an awesome brother-in-law. He was very easy to talk with He was more like a brother. Years ago when we went out to dinner with Anita and Dennis we got boxed in the parking lot by a small car. Eddie and Dennis let the air out of the tires and were able to pick it up to move it so we could get out. The fact that the car was small made it easy to move.. Who would have guessed two small men like that would be able to do that. Dennis was very proud of his family and loved them very much. He loved family gatherings. We will miss you Dennis. Please take comfort in knowing we will take care of Anita. Love you Georgette (George) and Eddie
Dennis was definitely a Jack-of-all -trades. He was good at anything he put his hand to and he always had the cleanest car in town! He had a ready sense of humor that will be missed. He loved meeting and being around people and enjoyed dinners with family and friends. I personally will be forever indebted to Dennis (and Anita) for the unwavering and invaluable help to me when my Mom was ill.
Love you Dennis.

Dennis was a caring and a very fun loving man. He had a Zest for life and showed it in everything he did. Moe and I are so blessed to have so many memories with him and Anita. A trip to stow Vermont was one of our favorite memories. We did a lot of traveling when we all lived in Arizona from many trips to Vegas and another great time was St George Utah. We even got Dennis to go tenting in beautiful Sedona AZ. Moe and I are going to miss him so much.
I’ll always remember you smiling in your chair and tolerating Jen and I making velveeta Mac and cheese and watching Beauty and the Beast every day after school.
What to say about my cousin Dennis other than he loved being around people and having a good time. He was like a brother to Bob and me. He would always say prior to our visits that he had to exercise his face so it would not hurt from laughing so hard. We have so many great memories that we could fill a book. One thing for sure Bob, our son Steven and I are going to miss Dennis, a lot. Bro rest in peace.
We love you, Pat, Bob and Steven
