Dennis Kevin Caudill, age 65, passed away peacefully in his home on February 10, 2025 after losing his battle with cancer.

He is preceded in death by his mother Thresa, stepfather Paul, and his father Norris. 

Dennis is survived by his son Denny, his daughter Caitlyn, and his older brother Norris (Barb); niece Brandy (Brandon), nephews Bryant (Devon), Reno (Jenna), Kyle  and many of his numerous friends in the Chisago Lakes area who he cherished deeply.

Dennis was born and raised in Detroit, a fact which he was very proud of. In his younger years he enjoyed bowling and the occasional street race in his ‘66 Impala. He moved to Minnesota in 1985 after being transferred to the Ford plant in St. Paul. He retired from the Ford Motor Company after 28 years and worked odd jobs around the area until he found his fit at Chisago Warehouse Liquors.

In retirement Dennis enjoyed watching the Detroit Lions and the Tigers play, along with socializing with numerous people around town.

A celebration of life will be held at Shafer Township Hall Saturday March 29, from 11-2 and a private Ceremony afterwards. In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Castaways Against Cancer
