He graduated from St. Rose High School in Belmar, New Jersey, and attended Mount Saint Mary’s College in Emmitsburg, Maryland.

He was self employed as a mason contractor known for his custom brick and tile work, as well as a jack of all trades who was willing to lend a hand to anyone in need.

Denis had a great love of music and enjoyed playing his guitar, frequently hosting jam sessions with friends. He also had an undeniable sense of humor and never failed to make us laugh!

He is survived by his daughter Erin Scabuzzo (Sergio) of Port Townsend, Washington; sister Patricia Brewer (Joseph) of Dalton, Massachusetts; sister Peggy Riccio of Toms River, New Jersey and sister Sheila Rogers (Michael) of Melbourne, Florida. He is also survived by several nieces, nephews and cousins, as well as numerous friends.

A Celebration of Life for local family and close friends is planned. Contact his family for information.

Another Celebration of Life and burial will be planned in New Jersey at a later date.
