Early in the morning of January 13, 2022, Michael Roy Dennison passed in peace surrounded by loved ones at the age of 69. He resided in Gloucester Point, born and raised in Hillburn, NY, by the late James and Maisie Dennison. Michael is survived by his loving wife Barbara, his sons Michael Dennison Jr. (Dena) and Matthew Dennison, stepdaughter Deanna Baker (Justin), and eight beautiful grandchildren Bobby, Mikey, Thalia, Sebastian, Bernadette, Felicia, Lex, and Guillermo Ospina III. He is lovingly remembered by his siblings Marcella, Rodney, Carol, John, Lenny, Joe, and Donald, as well as many nephews and nieces including a special niece, Luana Jennings. He is predeceased by Brothers James Jr., Raymond, Richard, Truman, and Sisters Bert, Sondra Lee, and Desiree; as well as stepson Guillermo Ospina Jr. Michael always had a smile on his face and liked to joke and laugh. He was a passionate NY Yankees fan who loved to fish. Michael loved music and was an excellent guitar player who belted out classic country tunes with his family. In his youth he raised chickens in his backyard. His love for the outdoors transferred into his adulthood, as he took every chance he had to work in the yard with his wife. His family is grateful for the impact he left on their lives and the memories left in their hearts. No matter the situation, Michael was always able to put a smile on your face and show his love. He was truly one of a kind and his memory will live on forever. The family would like to send a special thank you to the staff at Riverside Peninsula Cancer Center and Riverside Hospice for their care and dedication. The family will receive friends Monday, January 17, 2022, from 1:00 until 1:45 pm at Hogg Funeral Home. A celebration of life service will begin at 2:00 pm in the Chapel officiated by Pastor Art Wolz.
