From Bev Mitchell...

Dennis will be truly missed. The halls at Kraft Tool are already echoing “enjoy your day”, a phrase Dennis would add to the end of his conversations. He always had a smile and a chuckle. My sincere sympathy to his family and friends for the loss of this wonderful personality named Dennis.

From Marie Flaker Kraft Tool Company...

Dennis will, very much, be missed by his Kraft Tool family. At our annual fish fry, Dennis would fry enough fish to feed everyone in the plant. He enjoyed sharing his “catch” with employees.

Dennis was kindly known as my favorite, udder Rudder. I will miss you my friend.

Dad,
How do we say goodbye to a man who is so much of who we are and who we have become. There are so many memories that you have left us with; each one makes us smile. We are proud of who we are, of where we come from and most of all Dad, we are proud to be your daughters. We do not say goodbye, just till we meet again.
Love you,
Lacy & Christel

We ran far we ran free. Children of the Walnut creek Padonia valley. Train tracks flooded bottom ground hay bales by the thousands and all school softball games at recess, sledding until dark with hands frozen only to thaw them around a wood stove. Mama Mellies canned fish ,goulash, cinnamon rolls, pies we ate it all as if we had no bottom. Flathead fish heads hung as trophies on the garden fences. We were rich with our youth. Dennis was my Big John to my Robinhoood. We went deep when we were young. We were rich with life. Thank-you Dennis . because I always looked up to you whether I wanted to or not.
