This eternal flame burns forever
in remembrance of Dennis R. Koneman
Dennis R. Koneman
May 2, 1942 - October 18, 2020
Dennis Koneman,
78 of Garfield passed away Sunday 10/18/20 at NW
Medical Center. He
survived a massive heart attack on 9/22 and was
doing very well when
he suffered a 2nd one on 10/8. He fought valiantly
for 10 days. Denny
was born in Chicago on May 2, 1942 to Alfred
Koneman and Georgianna (Stanke) Koneman. He is survived by Sandi,
his soul-mate of 39
years. Also his first wife Evelyn, and their children
Linda Koneman
(Randy Bleier) and Robert Koneman.
He is also survived
by 3 half-sisters, Debbie,
Georgie and Julie, and one half-brother, Joe
Iozzo. Plus many nieces and nephews.
Denny was a trucker, an avid hunter,
fisherman and horseman. He and
Sandi became known internationally for their
high-quality Black Arabians.
They exported 32 to other countries.
They even sold 2 to the Sultan
of Oman. Denny was a
crack shot and knew everything about guns. And
Denny was an excellent card-player. He could
play any card game well,
but he especially liked "Cut-throat
Euchre". Denny and Sandi especially
enjoyed camping with
the Jolly Rogers Camping Club. Denny was friendly
and out-going. He was
quick to offer his help to anyone needing it.
He made lots of friends. Denny loved their
34-acre ranch in Garfield. He
kept 9 acres
meticulously mowed and weed-whipped. He was so proud when
everyone said it
looked "like a Golf Course".
Denny wanted to be cremated. He did
not want a funeral. But he'd be
honored if all of his
friends want to get together to share memories of
happy times they
spent with him. Plans will be made to do that in the
future when large
gatherings can take place safely. For more info you can

Though He's gone, He is not forgotten.
Though absent, He remains in spirit.
Though once a worker, He now rests.
