Dennis Hochgraber passed away early this morning due to COVID complications. He fought bravely until the last minute surrounded by his wife Debra and daughters. Many of you knew Dennis who has been active for many years in the Texas Bronco community. He was a past President of the Lonestar Early Bronco Club. As a minister, he was known as the "Reverend of Roll" - having flopped his Bronco on several occasions! He was one of the finest persons you could ever meet. He will be missed greatly and he leaves a big hole in the Bronco community.

Please send prayers and condolences to his family.

RIP Dennis.

I am so sorry, I had a hard time reading your facebook posts without thinking of my Dad. May he rest in peace and happiness.

Very sad. My wife and I were on our way to OCBR anxious to get caught up with our Bronco family. That's when we learned that Dennis was in the hospital. For the last few weeks, several of us have been following his progress and it seemed to look positive. I didn't think for a minute that this would be the end result. Still in disbelief. :(

Dennis was one of those people you looked forward to seeing at an event. Great guy. Throughout the entire COVID ordeal, he was in and out of the hospital multiple times over several months, he and his family have been strong, positive witnesses to their faith and trust in God. As a friend reminded me - this is a sad and happy day. He is with the Lord.
