Dennis B. Dormady
Dennis Bruce Dormady passed away at home on October 22, 2022 at age 68, from complications of cancer.
Dennis was born on January 26, 1954 to Herbert and Jeanette (Schneberger) Dormady. He graduated from Lourdes High School in 1972. Soon thereafter, he enlisted in the US Navy. He was very proud to serve his country. He spent 4 years in Europe and the Eastern US, where he loved to travel and explore museums and the countryside.
In 2019, Dennis retired after more than 20 years with Mississippi Welders Supply Co. He was also the manager of their Red Wing, MN store for 7 years.
Dennis loved visiting with his children and grandchildren, traveling, camping, antique stores, and especially car shows where he liked to show-off his blue 1956 Chevy pickup. He supported American Legion Post 92 in Rochester and was a member of the Eagles Club.
On May 19, 1978 he married Mary Chicos. She passed away on November 18, 2007. On October 5, 2012, he married Char Forney. They had both lost spouses and were hoping for many years together.
Dennis is survived by his wife Char of Rochester, siblings Kathleen (Marv) Smith of Rochester, Janice (Loren) Poldervaard of Spring Valley, MN, Bryan of Rochester, children Ann Dormady of Joice, IA, Ross (Liza) Dormady of Middleton, ID, Aaron Dormady of Beaverton, OR, step-children Jericho (Jenny) Forney of Rochester, Krishna (Jesse) Southwick of Rochester, grandchildren Henry, Ellory, Ramon, Carmen, Ky, Haley, Jericho Jr., Zyanya, Rebekah, and Jade. He is preceded in death by his parents, wife Mary, brother Gerald, brother-in-law Joseph Chicos, sister-in-laws Gladys Dormady, Jackie Dormady, Susan Freytag, and a very special aunt Gladys Stephan.
The Memorial Service for Dennis will be held on Monday, October 31, 2022 at 1:00pm in the River Park Chapel at Macken Funeral Home.

Condolences
The family of Dennis B. Dormady has received the following condolences.
Char,
Thinking of you and your family as we share in your pain during this difficult time.
In His Love,
Chris
Very sorry for your loss. I am honored to be part of Dennis' We Honor Veterans Pinning Ceremony back in August. I also enjoyed learning more about Dennis and Char's amazing adventures.
I will miss my friend Denny. We were part of a foursome that went into the Navy together. I also knew his mother when we worked together at the Kahler Hotel while I was in high school. Deny and I went our separate ways after boot camp but I was fortunate to restart our friendship two summers ago. He revealed his earlier battle with cancer and we were looking forward to many more get-togethers but then he received the bad news last year. I was able to meet with him one more time and will always remember the few hours we shared. Will miss you, Denny. Anchors aweigh!
Char,
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Many thoughts and especially prayers are with you at this time. Take care.
Char,
I am deeply sorry for your loss. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Wishing you comfort in all your wonderful memories with Dennis.
Sincerely,
Jodi Ross
Having grown up two homes apart Handles (Dennis) and I spent some young years running around and sometimes after he came home from the navy. It’s sad that our lives get so busy we lose touch. Was always going to reconnect but only happened a few times.
I’ll never forget the time he bought a twin cylinder motorcycle and it spent a lot of it’s time behind our garage because his folks didn’t know and when he got his 57 chev that he would park blocks away ( again not known by parents)
Thoughts and prayers for family
RIP friend
It's with heartfelt sympathy to you Char, and the family. He was a great friend and will truly be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. May he RIP. Nancy and Charlie Keller
