Dennis attended first grade through high school in Lusk, Wyoming. He spent a lot of time in his youth helping his Uncle, Aunt, and Grandparents on the J.P. Jensen ranch in the Hat Creek, Wyoming area. On May 18, 1959, he was joined in marriage with Naomi K. Leimser, and they had two children, Howard and Jacqueline.
