Dennis was born January 8, 1964 in Daytona Beach, Florida, where he spent his early years enjoying the beach and NASCAR.  As a cub scout, he would watch the races then the troop would clean the stands.  He truly enjoyed that and thus began his life-long love of racing.    At the age of 14, he moved to Katy, Texas and attended Katy High School, graduating in 1982.   Dennis enjoyed shop class and working on vehicles and upon graduation, attended Wyoming Technical Institute to study automotive technology.  After graduating in 1983, Dennis began his 37-year career working for Mac Haik Chevrolet.  

Holy Covenant United Methodist in Katy was Dennis’s church home for many years and he was very involved from teaching 4th and 5th Sunday School to helping anywhere else he was needed.
