Denver Dharl Dendy, age 55, of Strawberry Plains, Tennessee, formerly of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, and Fredericksburg, Virginia, passed away at his home Sunday, June 20, 2021, from natural causes.
Born October 24, 1965, in Marlinton, he was the much-loved son and buddy of William and Virginia Dendy, of Marlinton.
Dharl was an electrician by trade. He loved his pets, the outdoors and fishing and hunting. He wanted to move to Marlinton once his youngest child graduated high school. Dharl’s Facebook post of May 17, 2020 stated, “Gonna start the retirement plan! Step 1: live long enough to retire! Step 2: buy a banjo. Step 3: 100 acres in the forest.” He was so proud when he purchased the banjo as that was one step closer to his goal. Dharl will be missed more than he could have ever believed possible.
He was preceded in death by a stepson, Jeremy Hamrick.
In addition to his parents, he was survived by a son, Rory Dendy, of Knoxville, Tennessee; daughter, Erin Dendy, of Knoxville, Tennessee; stepson, J.R. (Emily) Hamrick, of Fredericksburg, Virginia; sister, Lynette (Jamie) Corle, of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania; nephews, Shane Yezierski, of Port Orchard, Washington, and Seth Yezierski, of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.
Sadly, Dharl’s mother, Virginia, passed away December 25, 2021, before know- ing the cause of Dharl’s death.
In keeping with Dharl’s wishes, there will be no service.
