Edwards

Family, friends, Brewers, and beer – that was Pokey Devito. Dennis Wesley Edwards, devoted husband and doting father sadly left this earth to reunite with his beloved wife of 51 years, Betty Jo, in Heaven on November 30, 2022, after a brief illness.
Dennis was a little league player, you can read about him in a book, a Vietnam veteran, a hardworking man of strong faith, Packer fan, and enthusiastic volunteer. If there was a need, there was Denny. A retired letter carrier, he claimed to be a forever mule. His fellow mules – Red Eye, Trooper, Rassy and Hooknose, to name a few, were near and dear to his heart.
Dennis enjoyed hunting, fishing, and walking the Millennium Trail where he made new friends like Dan and Winston and Dick and countless others.

Ah Denny, to know you was to love you.
