Also survived by his loving grandchildren David, Amanda, Courtney, Alexandria, Zachary and Emmalee. Also loved by his sister Kathleen Garwood.

Dennis spent 21 years of loyal service in the Navy as an X-ray technician. He served 4 years aboard the USS John F Kennedy where he received 2 Navy Achievement Medals. He was honorably discharged in January of 1991. Dennis was proud of his service to his country and even prouder when his sons followed in his footsteps. Prouder still was when his grandson SGT David Jeffries Smith followed suit and joined the Army.
Dennis will be greatly missed by those that loved and adored him. No plans for a funeral at this time but the family will continue to celebrate the life he led.
LIVE LONG AND PROSPER! -Leonard Nemoy
