Dennis H. Martin

Dennis Martin (Dennie), age 89, passed away on March 31, 2026, in Omaha, NE.

Dennie graduated from Sacred Heart High School and then served in the U.S. Navy aboard the USS Forrestal. After his military service, Dennie worked as a television repairman for several years, later building a career as a talented carpenter and remodeler. A true handyman, he had a gift for fixing anything-often with whatever was on hand. Dennie was a man of few words, unless the topic turned to politics, and was known for his dry sense of humor and quick wit. He enjoyed the outdoors, especially fishing and hunting, and time spent in Canada and northern Minnesota at the family cabin.

Preceded in death by parents Dorothy and Harvey Martin, sister Marlene Kelly and brother-in-law Martin Kelly, brother-in-law Michael Wiese, and former wife, Barbara Lange.

Survived by sister, Kathleen Wiese, nieces and nephews Patti (Tim) Thoma, Michael (Brenda) Kelly, Kevin (Patty) Kelly, Peggy (Brad) Biffar, Kathleen Kelly, Stephanie (Brett) Severson, Megan (Corri) Woods and many grand nieces and nephews.

A Memorial Service will be held on Friday (6/5/2026) 10:30 AM at Good Shepherd Funeral Home, 4712 S 82nd Street, Omaha, NE.  Burial with military honors will follow at Omaha National Cemetery, 14250 Schram Rd, Omaha NE at 12:30 PM.
