March 15, 1957-December 4, 2012
Dennis departed this world peacefully after suffering with a long illness. Even with his poor health, he never lost faith and always had a smile on his face no matter what life threw at him. He was a wonderful family man and a hard worker.
Dennis is preceded in death by his parents, Luther (Doc) and Elnora (Sis) Black; and brothers, L.J. Black, Sonny Black, and Raleigh Chamness.
He leaves behind his wife of 24 years, Elisa Black; daughter, Megan Black; son, Ryan Heisley; granddaughters, McKenah Cruz-Heisley and Rhianon Cruz-Heisley; brothers, Charles and Raydean Black; and sisters, Evelyn Erreca and Sandy Dafoe.
He will surely be missed.
A memorial service will be held on Friday, December 14, 2012 at 11:00am at Stratford Evans Merced Funeral Home, 1490 B St., Merced, CA 95340.
Arrangements are under the direction of Stratford Evans Merced Funeral Home.
