Dennis will be remembered as an outgoing man who never met a stranger. He served his country in the Navy from 1965 to 1971. He moved to Northwest Arkansas in 1976, where he established himself as a skilled craftsman. He was the proprietor of Ozark Cabinet Company from 1976 until his passing. He served as the first ever Fire Chief at NEBCO Fire Department in Garfield in 1978, and continued to work with the department for ten years.
Dennis was also an avid outdoorsman who found his greatest joy in camping, hunting, and fishing. He was a member of the Lutheran faith.
His survivors include his wife of 28 years, Sheryl Peterson; children, Dwayne Peterson of Lowell, Michelle Webb of Fayetteville; step-son, Krispin McDevitt of Pea Ridge; 6 grandchildren; 3 great-grandchildren; many friends; and his trusty beagle, Kipper.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
A celebration of Dennis’s life will be held by the family at a later date.
In lieu of flower please make a donation to The Rogers chapter of the VFW.
