Dennis was born in Dallas Feb. 26, 1955, to Joe and Wanda (Leverette) McCreary.

Dennis, also known as Pop, enjoyed visits from his grandchildren. He served the Lord by teaching Sunday School, being a member of praise and worship teams and sharing with others how they could personally know the Lord as their Savior. He loved to relax on the back porch with his dogs, studying God’s Word and going to the movies. His example of trusting God’s plan and finding peace and joy in the midst of life’s circumstances was a blessing to many.
