Dennis Brian Sitch

Dennis Sitch passed away March 21, 2015, from natural causes in Polson, Montana. He was born in Minot, North Dakota, on July 22, 1944, to Peter and Rene Sitch.

Dennis spent his younger years in North Dakota, and in his teens he moved to Sand Point, Idaho. He graduated from Sand Point High school in 1962. After graduation he worked in local sawmills until he was drafted into the United States Army, serving in the Vietnam War for two years.

After his honorable discharge from the Army, he moved to Lincoln, Montana to work as a post cutter with his brother Pete Sitch. He helped out with odd jobs and created relationships with the townsfolk of Lincoln throughout his lifetime.
Dennis Sitch spent his life devoted to his nieces and nephews in their sports and milestones in their lives. He then moved to Polson, Montana in 2003 to live with his niece Tammy Sitch. Tammy proceeded to care for Dennis until his passing.

He is survived by his sisters Elvira (Miron) Lewis, Arline and (late) Rodger Gilbert, brother Greg Sitch, his nieces and nephews (the Sitch's, the Gilbert's, and the Lewis's), and his many friends in Lincoln, Montana.

He is preceded in death by his parents Peter and Rene Sitch, brother and sister-in-law Pete and Jean Sitch, and Brother-in-law Rodger Gilbert. Dennis peacefully passed on the weekend of the Pete Sitch Basketball tournament, a time in which his family could come together and celebrate his life.

Dennis Sitches memorial will be April 11, 2015, at noon, in the Community Hall of Lincoln, Montana, with a celebration of life to follow.
