Dennis R. Siner

Dennis Ray Siner, age 70, owner of the former Dennis Siner Contracting and lifelong resident of Muskogee, Oklahoma died Wednesday, July 29, 2020 from complications of a stroke. Dennis is survived by his two daughters, Sara Siner Darling and Carlie (Patrick) Wellington; his ex-wife and mother of his children, Susan Siner; his grandchildren, Karmen, Maddox, Cohen, and Paxson; his sister, Meredith Howard; along with many cousins, nieces, and nephews. He is predeceased by his parents, Booster and Mildred Siner; his late wife, Jean Ann Siner; and his brother, Jim Siner. Dennis was born in Muskogee, OK on March 15, 1950 to Booster and Mildred Siner. He graduated from NSU with a degree in Math Education. He owned a motorcycle shop, Suzuki Seller for several years. His next venture was Dennis Siner Contracting which he owned for more than 30 years. He started out with a pickup and lawn movers but was always learning new skills including tree removal, concrete work, and ultimately demolition and excavating. He was never afraid of hard work. He was married to Susan for 30 years and they welcomed his two daughters on May 7, 1981 and April 13, 1983 respectively, who were the joy of his life. Dennis loved his girls and his grandkids and provided a good life for them. He was a tireless worker, entrepreneur, and learner. He never backed away from a challenge as is typical of a business owner. He always dreamed of starting a school of common sense and was determined to instill these values in his daughters. If you knew him you know he shared his mind, both good and bad, and you always knew where you stood with him. He instilled values of equality for all people, especially the full inclusion and equity of women. One of his most lasting legacies was that of his generosity and desire to help out those in need. While he had a tough exterior at times he was a teddy bear underneath. He was an excellent napper and loved his sleep. He also loved a good greasy breakfast, motorcycles, BBQ, bread and butter, watermelon, midnight snacks, and most recently he loved working in his yard. A memorial service will be 10AM, Friday, August 14th, 2020 at Cornerstone Funeral Home Chapel in Muskogee, Oklahoma.
