Helping Families and Friends Honor Their Loved One

Dennis Edward Huff, age 77

Dennis Edward Huff, born in Wichita, Kansas on December 27, 1942, passed away September 30, 2020 surrounded by loving family in the comfort of his daughter’s home in Conway, Arkansas. Dennis was preceded in death by his mother, ElDora, father and step-mother, Lennis and Polly, brother Danny, and his daughter, Elaine. Left to mourn his loss are his wife, Judith, two children, Dan and Alicia, five siblings, David, Bobby, Ginger, Ann, and Paul, four grandchildren, Morgan, Nathan, Mason, and Liam, and great-granddaughter, Meridian.

A jack of all trades, Dennis enjoyed such hobbies as sewing, sailing, carpentry, word games and riddles, calligraphy, coaching his children’s sports teams, and falling asleep watching golf. He also held a 210 average in bowling and belonged to several leagues in his younger years.

Dennis began his adulthood in the Navy as a Seaman Apprentice from 1960 to 1961. He worked jobs of all sorts before settling at Dassault Falcon Jet, eventually retiring as Director of Pricing after 33 years.

In his retirement, Mr. Huff mastered the Wii, prepared taxes, attended Seminary school, and cared for his several animals – 5 dogs and 12 chickens. He was a gentle, nurturing, charismatic, intelligent, and God loving man who will be greatly missed.

Memorial service will be held at Dennis’ church home, Friendship Baptist Church in Vilonia, Arkansas on Saturday, October 10, at 1 p.m.

Arrangements carefully considered and entrusted to A Natural State Funeral Service, 2620 West Main Street, Jacksonville, Arkansas.  501-982-3400

      Dennis and I worked together at Falcon Jet for 28 years. He hired me and taught me a lot about the business. He always was willing to help me when I needed it. I will never forget Dennis and I pray for Jan and all the family.

    Mr. Dennis, I never got to meet you, but I know that you were one amazing husband, father, grandfather , and friend that was loved dearly. I am rejoicing that you have made it home and will spend the rest of your days with our Heavenly Father. You are forever restored and we will have an opportunity to meet one day. My prayers are with your family during this time.

    My love and condolences to all the family. It is a comfort to know that Uncle Dennis is with the Lord, and I’ll have a chance to see him again in eternity. I will continue to pray for peace and comfort for the family as they move through this deep well of grief. Love to you all.

    Words fall flat when expressing our sympathy to family and friends as they seem hollow trying to communicate the impact Dennis made on all who knew him. So we leave you with this, Dennis was a light burning brightly here on earth and God knew we needed him to light our paths. Thankful for the time we were given.

    I hope the fond memories of Dennis will bring everyone comfort during this trying time. May God bless you all and I hope you all draw close to the Lord.
