Dennis Dean Eldredge, born April 10, 1951, known to many as “Denny,” and most proudly as “Dad” and “Boppa,” passed away on October 22, 2024.

After years of dealing with AFib, Dennis underwent emergency open heart surgery in May of 2023. He made a full recovery, but unfortunately passed in October due to heart failure. 

You may recognize him as a volunteer at the Rochester Heart Walk & Run, where he loved managing the mindfulness/rock painting table and learning about people's "why."

A collector of Hess Trucks since 1976, plant enthusiast, enjoyer of deep political conversations, blown glass, and explorer of the nuances of industrial designs, he had a passion for creativity. Dennis was most proud of his role as husband, father, and “Boppa” to his adoring granddaughter and Baby B.

We hope you'll join us in honoring him at this year's Heart Walk & Run, and fundraising with us to prevent other families from suffering the same loss.
