Dennis D. Prince

Mar 16 1939 - Jan 23 2016

Dennis D. Prince, age 76, of McKinney, Texas, joined the Lord on Saturday, January 23, 2016 in McKinney after a long six year battle with liver cancer. Dennis was born March 16, 1939, in Detroit, Michigan, to Claude Thomas and June (Morey) Prince. He was raised in Detroit and while living there his love and passion for the game of golf blossomed. Dennis was extremely proud of his time and work as a caddy at his favorite course, Oakland Hills Country Club. He married Betty Ann Maners on June 15, 1962, in Nashville, Tennessee. The love and passion each shared for one another will be forever unmatched. Dennis was an engineer for over thirty years. In his spare time, he enjoyed traveling and tinkering in the garage. Dennis seemed to always be fixing and building things on his land, such as his Model T. He was a truly loving husband, father and Papa.

He is survived by his wife of fifty-four years, Betty Prince of New Hope, Texas; sons, Dennis Prince of McKinney, Texas and Jeff Prince of Syracuse, New York; daughter, Tish Sammons and husband, Patrick also of New Hope; grandchildren, Jennifer Diedrich of Melissa, Texas, Jeffrey Prince of Syracuse, New York, Travis Sammons and Patricia Sammons, both of McKinney, Texas, and Ashley Prince, also of McKinney; great-grandchildren, Gracelyn, Taylor, Zoey, and Harper; and brothers, Ken Prince and wife, Kay of Knoxville, Tennessee and Dale Prince and wife, Debbie of Nashville, Tennessee.
