Denny was self-employed. He was partners with his nephew Greg Gephart in the late 70’s in Lewis County, WA building houses and other construction. In later years he ran his own excavating business first in Lewis County, WA them in Okanogan County with his son Brian. His health forced him to retire from the equipment work he loved.

Denny’s sisters were brought by his nieces and nephews to visit him in September 2017 for the first time he was on Hospice and because of the hardship of travel the family is counting that as his memorial. Many phone calls and cell texts and messages gave some closure during his last weeks. The enormous support of his family will long be cherished by his wife Diane.
