Dennis Sheehan, 69, of Cedar Falls, Iowa was welcomed into eternal life and embraced by the Lord on Friday, June 25, 2010.
Memorial services will be held on Saturday, July 3, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. at the St. James United Methodist Church in St. James.
Dennis Paul Sheehan was born to Ruth Sheehan and the late Paul Sheehan of Clarion, Iowa. He was raised and educated in Clarion before moving to St. James. He greatly enjoyed many warm summers and cold winters fish on the lake in St. James. While he had much pleasure tending to his gardens and bird feeders, his true talents were found in his woodworking craftsmanship and unique ability to acquire many friends, particularly while operating his popcorn stand in the center of St. James.
Dennis was a parishioner and former board member of the United Methodist Church and also served as a St. James Alderman.
Survivors include his mother, Ruth; daughter, Shelly Murray and her husband Mark of Fairfield, CT; grandchildren, Meghan, Sophie, Connor and Jack; brothers and their spouses, Nick and the late Linda, John and Candy and Mike and Cindy; sisters and their spouses, LaNora and Don Boggess, Jean and Ronald Brooks, Pauline Michels and Kathy Steen; and many nieces and nephews.
The family wished to extend a heartfelt thank you to the wonderful friends at the Mt. Lake and Windsor Nursing Homes for their care, compassion and kindness during Dennis’ later years.
