After finishing school at DMACC he worked in IT for the State of Iowa until he retired in 2009. Denny volunteered for the Bondurant Fire Department for many years and eventually became fire chief.

Denny had many interests including a love of traveling, which included scuba diving trips and camping. The couple spent many years camping with family, friends, and camped all across the US, including yearly camping trips to Michigan to watch NASCAR. He loved the Iowa Hawkeyes and attended many football games. Denny loved his church and was very active in many different capacities, including serving as a deacon, helping with AWANA, and other positions, including a favorite pastime, mowing the church lawn. The biggest enjoyment of his life was spending time with his family and he was proud of each and every one of them.
