Dennis Lee Yoder, 78, passed away on November 1, 2023, due to injuries sustained in a car accident. While his departure from earth was unexpected, we put our trust in God’s perfect timing and celebrate his transition to his home in heaven.
Dennis was born on April 25, 1945, the son of Ralph & Clara Yoder. He married Pamela Jean Baszler on August 14, 1971. They were married for 37 years at the time of Pamela’s passing. Together they raised their children, Aaron, Andrea, and Matthew and welcomed their daughter-in-law, Michelle Kepner Yoder into their family. Over the past eight years Dennis enjoyed sharing life’s adventures with his lady friend, Brenda Rogers. Dennis was also proud to be “grandpa” to Mayli, Makinly, and Macoy Yoder. He enjoyed attending their sporting events and was proud of all their accomplishments.
Dennis loved people and for those of you who spent time with him, you know he was a talker! Dennis knew everyone…eventually. He had a kind heart and helped many people along his journey. His passion in life was farming and he enjoyed raising cattle, with little intention of retiring!
The family would like to invite Dennis’ family, friends, and acquaintances to join us in celebrating his life. The visitation and Celebration of Life service will be held at Howard-Miami Mennonite Church, 3976 East 600 North, Kokomo, IN 46901. Visiting hours will be 2 pm to 8 pm on Friday, November 10, 2023. The Celebration of Life service will begin at 10:30 am on Saturday, November 11, 2023 at the church, officiated by Pastor Lee Miller. Burial will follow in Mast-Hensler Cemetery.
The family asks that memorial offerings in honor and remembrance of Dennis’ life be made to the Food Pantry Ministry at Morning Star Church, P.O. Box 3505,Muncie, Indiana. Dennis had a personal connection with this community as he shared gifts of canned beef, corn, etc. on many occasions.
