He was predeceased in death by his mother, Lela Pauline Harris, infant sister, LaFayne Harris, and his maternal and paternal grandparents. Denney was a graduate of Robert W. Groves High School, after which time he served in the U. S. Army. He worked for many years at Rent-A-Tool Co. and was working at Intermarine when he became disabled.
