Dennis Ray O'Roark
August 7, 1946 — February 18, 2024
Dennis Ray O'Roark, passed away peacefully on February 18, 2024, in Henryetta, Oklahoma. Born on August 7, 1946, in Ceres, California, Dennis was a man of integrity, warmth, and a hardworking spirit that touched the lives of all who knew him.
The son of George and Edith (Ellis) O'Roark, Dennis grew up in Modesto where he developed a strong sense of duty and a love for his country, which led him to serve in the Army after receiving his GED from Modesto Junior College. Upon returning to civilian life, Dennis embarked on a career as a printing press operator.
Dennis's work ethic was matched only by his passion for his hobbies. He had a natural talent for working on cars, often spending hours under the hood, fine-tuning engines to perfection. His hands were equally skilled in construction.
As we bid farewell to Dennis Ray O'Roark, we celebrate a life well-lived, a man well-loved, and a legacy that will continue to inspire. His was a journey of joy, challenges met with courage, and a life enriched by the love of family and friends. Dennis's story is one of a journey completed, a race well run, and a rest well deserved.
Dennis was preceded in death by his parents, George and Edith, wife, Pamella O'Roark brother Arvil O'Roark and daughter, Dana O'Roark from his previous marriage.
Family was the cornerstone of Dennis's life. He is survived by his loving children, Charles White and wife Mandey of Dewar, Oklahoma, April Watkins of Henryetta, Oklahoma, and Erin O'Roark and her mother, Gloria of Modesto, California. His legacy continues through his cherished grandchildren and great-grandchildren, who will miss his guidance and the stories he shared. Dennis also leaves behind his brothers, Harrell O'Roark and wife Charlie of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Fred O'Roark and wife Jean of Modesto, California, who will remember him fondly.
A Celebration of Life service will be scheduled at a later date.
