The Life of Mr. Dennis M. Ferguson
Dennis M. Ferguson, 72, of Krumsville, PA passed away peacefully on Friday, May 5, 2023 in Tower Health - Reading Hospital, with his wife of 50 years by his side. Dennis was the husband of Brenda R.

Denny Boy
I met Denny when he moved to Highland Ave when I was 5. He and my brothers and me were friends for life. We played baseball and hide and seek, and capture the flag and kick the can. We sledded together and biked together. Had a great childhood. Will always remember our great times. I loved Denny Boy ❤️

What a force! I know he's still busy getting his wings right now and is DEFINATELY in his element again; as the protector of all whom he loved.
Brenda, Andy, Travis, Greg, Mandi, and kiddos...you've all got a true angel and guide watching out for you for the rest of your days here until you meet with him again.
I will forver hold the last hug he gave me, deep in my heart - it was only a year or so after Grammom passed, I had been through the wringer and honestly, it might have been the first and last hug. However, It was a doozy! I felt everything I know he wanted to say to me then, although clearly unnecessary.
That hug felt SO much like a transmission of strength, understanding and protection. All the things he is and was (strong, protective, understanding...) and all these things which he will offer to you in spirit whenever you need him. I know this. Deeply. Peace. 🕊

Back when.
Met Dennis when our children started playing sports. I even had him as an assistant coach for some time. Always enjoyed being around him.
