DENNIS UCHANSKI

Denny was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend to those who had the privilege to know him.

Throughout his life, Denny demonstrated an unwavering commitment to hard work. His most recent employment was with Ohio County Schools, where he served diligently as a custodian. He earned the respect and admiration of students, faculty, and staff alike for his steadfast work ethic, his unfailing kindness, and his genuine concern for those around him.

A devout Pittsburgh Steelers and WVU Mountaineers fan, Denny was rarely seen without sporting team colors during games. His passion for sports extended to cheering on the Pittsburgh Pirates as well. Beyond sports, he found peace and joy in the great outdoors, particularly through his love of fishing and treasured vacation getaways. Denny also held a deep affection for animals, especially his cats who brought him immense happiness throughout his life.

He was preceded in death by his loving parents, Victor and Shirley (Hall) Uchanski, and his cherished cat, Victoria. Denny’s memory will be lovingly preserved by his devoted sister, Joyce Falck, and her husband Michael; his dear niece, Victoria Marie Milton; and his best friend, Todd Suponic. Denny also leaves behind his beloved cat, Jazzi, who was a constant source of comfort and companionship.
