He was preceded in death by his parents Frank J. DeNeale Sr. and Patsy DeNeale, as well as his son Dennis R. DeNeale Jr.
He is survived by his beloved wife Judy, daughters Caralee Farah and Amanda DeNeale, his grandchildren Jackie and Aiden, his brothers Frank J. DeNeale Jr. (Ben) and David DeNeale (Veronica), his sisters Patricia Golden (David) and Debbie Petrowski (Mark), as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Dennis worked for Rainbo Bread, later bought by Sara Lee and Bimbo, for over twenty years as a bread-route man, where he met many of his friends and his current wife Judy. He was a strong man who loved his work and believed in paving his own way.
Dennis was an avid fisherman who loved fishing for bass in Joe Pool Lake in Arlington. Many of his Sunday’s were spent taking his boat to the lake and bass fishing with his children when they were younger. He was also a strong lover of football, with the Cowboys being his favorite team. One of his fondest memories was going to a game in the new stadium with his daughter. He also loved the Texas Rangers and baseball. Another favorite hobby Dennis loved, was playing cards and Yahtzee with his friends and family, especially his neighbors across the street.
Dennis was also very involved with the COP program with the Arlington Police Department, and he would try and patrol his part of the city as much as he could. He had a police scanner for many years, and would have it turned on at his house, keeping up with the news. He made many friends, who he cherished, in this program.
A Celebration of Life service will be held on Saturday January 25, 2020 at 2pm at Moore Bowen Road Funeral Home in the Chapel at 2pm. The address is 4216 S Bowen Rd, Arlington, TX 76016.
