A life held close in memory

Dennis J. Rolon Jr., 32, of Waterbury, Connecticut, died on December 26, 2022. Born June 18, 1990, in Orlando, Florida, Dennis was the son of Dennis Rolon Sr. and Elizet (Vazquez) Cabrera. He was known to family and friends as a caring and steady presence — a person whose company offered comfort and whose ties to family were central to his life.

Funeral arrangements were handled by Chapel Memorial Funeral Home in Waterbury. A viewing was held from 10 to 11 a.m., followed by a memorial service from 11 a.m. to noon on Wednesday, January 11, 2023. Dennis was laid to rest at New Pine Grove Cemetery in Waterbury.

Those who loved Dennis remember him for the simple, dependable ways he showed his care: being present for family events, offering quiet support to friends, and holding close the relationships that mattered most. While public reports note his passing on December 26, 2022, the family’s chosen remembrances and the funeral rites reflect a life remembered by those who knew him up close. His family’s grief is private and profound; these services provided a time for those who loved him to gather, share memories, and honor his life.

Dennis’s life mattered to those who shared it with him. Though his time was far too short, his memory lives on through the family he cherished and the small kindnesses by which friends recall him. May he rest in peace.
