Dennis Root Obituary
The memory of Dennis Root (Simsbury, Connecticut), who passed away on May 14, 2026 at the age of 51, will forever remain in the hearts of those touched by this precious presence in their lives. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Dennis Root to pay them a last tribute.
As we bid Dennis farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Dennis is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Frank M. Root and Sandra J. Root (Duguay); and his grandfather Gerald Root. He is survived by: his wife Jennifer E. Root (Veitch); his daughters, Kaila and Kelly Veitch; and his pets, Lenny, Freya and Franky.
They extend their heartfelt gratitude to the Canton first responders for their tireless efforts and encourage donations in Dennis's memory to the Hartford Animal Shelter, 120 Rescue Lane, Bloomfield, CT 06002, an organization close to his heart.
