Dennis James Butler
Dennis James Butler, 75, of Lock Haven, passed away Monday, Feb. 22, 2021 at the Williamsport Hospital.
Born Aug. 21, 1945 in Lock Haven to Boyd and Verna Dullen Butler.
On Oct. 11, 2013 after a 42-year engagement Denny married the former Diane Kinley at their daughter Colleen’s wedding rehearsal. It was a surprise to everyone that night. He said he waited so long to get married to make sure it was going to stick.
Denny attended St. Agnes Catholic School and Lock Haven High School.
Denny was a simple man not caring about the material things in life. He was more concerned about the people he loved and what he could do to help everyone around him. If there was a need that either his family or friends had he did his best to quietly fill it or find someone who could, never wanting any recognition for it. He always made time to help the older generation even as he became part of the older generation.
