Steven Alfred Dennis, age

69 of Pelican Rapids, MN was

born April 15, 1956, in

Rollette, ND was sent to his

eternal home on January 10,

2026, at Sanford Medical

Center in Fargo, ND, due to

complications from Leukemia.

He will be sadly missed and

fondly remembered by all

who know and love him.

Steve, as he was

affectionately known, was an extraordinary human being.

His passing has left a huge hole in the hearts of his family

and many friends. We ask that you remember him not for the

tragic way his life ended, but for the way he lived it. Steve

had a profound impact on the lives of those who had the

pleasure to know him.

After Steve’s graduation from high school in 1974 from

Pelican Rapids High School, he held various types of sales

and service jobs. At various times in his life he worked for

Mac’s Surplus, ServiceMaster, and Home Depot. He also

founded and operated a surplus sales store that he fondly

named Screamen Steve’s.

Outside of the various jobs that he held, Steve enjoyed

traveling, games of chance, watching sports, fishing, and

hunting. Steve loved family gatherings with his loving

family. His family is so grateful that he was able to

participate in a Christmas gathering a few weeks before his

death. Steve also owned numerous pets during his life. At

the time of his death, the joy of his life were his two puppies

Bella and Zena. As per Steve’s wishes his puppies will be

lovingly cared for by his brother.

Steve was preceded in death by his parents Raymond and

Joyce Dennis; brother Michael Dennis; sister-in-law Faye

Dennis; sister Judy Pederson and brother-in-law Lyle

Pederson.

Steve is survived by his brother Charles (Marsha) Dennis;

aunt Marlys Beguhn; and numerous nieces, nephews, and

cousins.

There are no words to express how grateful we are to the

family and friends who sat with Steve during the several

days in the ICU prior to his passing.

Although Steve’s physical presence may no longer be felt,

his beautiful spirit will continue to inspire and uplift us. May

his memory be a blessing and may we continue to carry in

our hearts the love and compassion that he had for his family

and many friends.

Celebration of Life service will be conducted in honor of

Steve on Saturday, February 7th, 2026 at Larson Funeral and

Cremation Service of Pelican Rapids beginning with a

visitation at 11am and formal services

starting at 12pm. A time of food and

fellowship will immediately follow, with

Steve's inurnment taking place at Ringsaker
