Dennis was a member of New Haven Baptist Church. Dennis loved dirt track racing and NASCAR. He spent most of his spare time working with friends on a dirt track pit crew, attending local races, and traveling to different NASCAR venues across the country. Dennis was also an avid Alabama fan. He collected both NASCAR and Alabama memorabilia.

Dennis never met a stranger and remembered everyone he met. It was often remarked, that if you went across the country with Dennis and walked into a restaurant, chances were he would run into someone he new. Dennis will be remembered for his carefree attitude and kindness to others.

The family would like to thank the many friends and co-workers that have reached out to us and shared their relationship with Dennis.
