Dennis George RACETTE
July 27, 1960 - March 30, 2023
Obituary
On March 30, 2023, Mr. Dennis Racette of the Lakeland area passed away at the age of 62 years. He is survived by his life partner, Holly Merritt; step-children, Becky Merritt (Matt), Alex Merritt (Jewel), Kirsten (Craig) Dallaire & Spencer Beauchamp; 7 step-grandchildren; 4 biological children; adopted parents, Alice & Ed; best friend, Yogi. Dennis was predeceased by his best friends, Rev & Sunny.
Dennis had the softest heart and the biggest smile. He was a hard worker and the best fix-it man I’ve ever known. He loved his animals more than himself, and everyone who knew him, knew this beyond a doubt. He was loved for who he was, and he will be remembered for his quick wit and sarcastic attitude. He lived life on his own terms. He will never be forgotten by his loved ones. Till we meet again.
Cremation will take place, with a Celebration of Life to be held at a later date. If desired, donations may be made to S.P.C.A. c/o 5626 51 Street, St. Paul AB T0A 3A1. To send condolences online, please visit www.gracegardensfuneralchapel.com.
