He was born in Sheboygan on August 7, 1949, to the late Elmer and Viola (Perronne) Voelker. Dennis was a graduate of North High School. From 1969 until 1975, Dennis proudly served his country in the United States Army.

He was a longtime member of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Sheboygan. Dennis’s career started in the printing business while he was in the military, then he started his own home improvement business and successfully operated that until his retirement. After retirement, he worked several part-time jobs.
Dennis enjoyed woodworking and tending to his lawn which he took great pride in. He had a soft spot for his grandsons, whom he loved spending time with and showing them they way around the shop.
