My father-in-law Dennis Dooley was always known as a friendly, outgoing guy with a constant smile on his face and easy to talk with.”
He made friends instantly and strangers became long lost friends in minutes. His ability to connect with anyone and everyone made him popular from a young age. The proud husband of Sharon, and father of three daughters, Dennis loved to hunt, fish, and spend time with friends and family. He was the quintessential Wisconsin outdoorsman!
We honor his spirit by creating a fun, welcoming dining experience at Dooley’s in downtown West Bend where everyone is welcome and strangers will quickly become friends!
Thanks!
