Dennis attended Adams Creek one room schoolhouse and spent much of his childhood on his grandparents farm near Olsburg.  Dennis graduated from Westmoreland High School in 1960.

Dennis then went to truck driving school which became his career for 50 years. Dennis drove for many large trucking companies including JB Hunt.
