Dennis accepted the MOST HIGH as his LORD and SAVIOUR at an early age.

Dennis attended York Public School System. While in high school, Dennis participated in the marching band as a drummer. Dennis graduated from Jefferson High School in 1965. Upon graduating, Dennis entered the military, serving in the Navy during the Vietnam Era. After his Honorary Discharge from the military, he entered into Detroit Barber College in Detroit, Michigan in 1970, and received his Occupational License as a Barber. He became a business owner in 1971 and served his clients for fifty years before he was forced to retire.

Dennis met and married Bertha McNult on June 16, 1972. THE MOST HIGH favored them with one child, a loving and considerate son.

In 1976, Dennis experienced an intimacy with his CREATOR with evidence of a heavenly utterance. That experience impacted his life from that moment, until he made his transition on January 14, 2021.

January 14, 1979, Dennis was one of several charter members that helped to establish The Word of Faith Christian Center in Detroit, Michigan, which later became the Word of Faith International Christian Center, Southfield, Michigan.

In 2000, Dennis and his wife Bertha McNulty were called out by THE MOST HIGH to establish a teaching ministry. He faithfully reverenced and served THE CREATOR until he received and crowned him with eternal life. Dennis walked upright before THE MOST HIGH, always conscious of his covenant.

Dennis was the most humble, kind and compassionate man you could have ever met. His demeanor was that of a gracious, mild-mannered and respectful gentleman. He was an excellent husband, committed family man and mentor to many.

He is preceded in death by his father, Benjamin McNulty, and mother, Keturah McNulty.

He leaves behind cherishing his memories: a Proverb 31 wife, Bertha McNulty; a Psalm 1 son, Juwan McNulty; a Proverb 20:15 granddaughter, Nykea McNulty; one sister, Frazier McNulty Davis (William L. Davis); two brothers, Benjamin McNulty, Jr. (Margaret McNulty), Kelvin McNulty (Bessie McNulty) all of South Carolina; one aunt, Bernice Offord of Asheville, North Carolina; three brothers-in-law, seven sisters-in-law, and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Dennis will be truly missed.
