Dennis was born in Banbridge, Northern Ireland and attended Belfast College of Technology to learn about the Irish textile industry. At the young age of 19, Dennis immigrated to Canada to work for the Hudson’s Bay Company in Longlac, Ontario, eventually settling in Guelph to start a family. After moving to Grand Island, New York and then Simcoe, Ontario, his career in manufacturing led him to Delhi Industries, where he spent 25 years until he retired. One of Dennis’ greatest loves was his hobby farm near Lynedoch, Ontario. He also enjoyed watching his grandkids play soccer.
A private family interment will be held at a later date.
