Dennis possessed a dedicated and driven persona. He was a man of few words, who led by example, through his witty phrases, his life lessons, and experiences. They will be passed along, remembered and taken to heart. He was a talented machinist who could rationalize any situation and repair any piece of machinery. He left big shoes to fill but in his footsteps we will follow.
He was preceded in death by the love of his life, married 56 years, Darlene E. (nee Kettler) Dumstorff, who passed, February 20, 2018, his infant children; Brenda and John Dumstorff, his parents; Bernard and Josephine (nee Woltering), his siblings; Florence Dumstorff, Richard Dumstorff, Genivive Jung, and Dorothy Davis.
Surviving to cherish memories are his loving daughter and son-in-law, Kathy (Matt) Stallons, of Swansea, IL, his grandchildren; Mitchell T., Garrett M. and Madison E. Stallons, his siblings; Virgil Dumstorff, Clarence Dumstorff, Orville Dumstorff, Bernice Heilmann, and Eileen Cooper, and a number of dear nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
