Denny had three younger brothers and one younger sister. He was preceded in death by his parents, youngest brother, Kevin, and sister Lori. Denny attended school in Appleton. He served in the US Navy and was honorably discharged in 1968. He married Kathy Fleckten on August 31, 1974. Denny and Kathy raised three children - Lisa (Steve) Hitzeman, Steven (Kay) Webber, and Jenna (Mark) Becker. They have six grandchildren - Nicole, Kelly, Alex, Katlin, Leah, and Gretchen. Denny owned a trucking company until he had his heart attack and lost most of his vision in 2004. We thought he wouldn't survive the heart attack but God decided it wasn't his time to go. He lived until April 3, 2005 with an LVAD (heart pump) and then received a heart transplant. His faith and determination kept him going through some of the difficult times. Since then he has lived life to the fullest. He continued woodworking using power tools. He mowed several lawns in the neighborhood and cleared snow for neighbors. He loved his grandchildren and took pleasure in spending time with them. He liked to cook and collect cookbooks. He loved spending time with family and friends. He enjoyed helping others any way he could. Visitation 6-9 PM Thursday at Miller Funeral Home, 6210 Hwy 65 NE, Fridley.
