I, first met Denn 1942 after moving into his neighborhood. Denn and I went through school together to graduation. We sort of went our ways after graduation. Denn and I were always in touch for the rest of his life. Denn was just a gas to be around. Most of time he had us laughing about the things he would do. He had a outgoing personality that made him likeable. He like to party alot until he met his wife to be. Edna was a widow with two very young girls he had to help raise. Denn added two boys and a girl to the fammily. He and his wife were very close. When Denn died in Dec 2003 cause by a stroke, his wife died a month later. She didn't want to go on alone.
They did a lot of family things. One was they built a nice cabin in Kamas. Drew his own plans (said learned from Mechanical drawings class at East) and they past by the county. On weekends, the family put it together.
He was a great snowmobiler. He and his group would go all over West including Yellowstone.
His work life was mostly sales which he did well at. He work for Arnold Machinery for the most of his work life.
After retirement, he moved to Las Vegas. He loved to play Black Jack. I would visit him annually. I miss that guy. Larry
