My brother, Dennis Kisela (2/28/83), tragically passed on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025. A loving son to our mother who would do anything for her. My best friend, only brother, best man who loved and supported like no other. Big brother to our sister Katie, who made “the best PB&J” and supported her as she darted around cross country races in middle, high school, and college. Dennis was the best brother we could’ve asked for.

A Lambda Chi Alpha member who enjoyed being a part of the brotherhood. Best friend to Allen, who spent childhood, high school, and many years after that together, laughing and continuing a friendship that will last forever.

A North Olmsted High graduate (2001), who played soccer, ran cross country & track, and walked the hallways with a smile at all times. “One of the kindest souls,” “nicest guy I’ve ever met,” “a stand-up gentleman from 1st grade.”

Dennis was a friend to many throughout his years as he attended Bowling Green State University. Becoming a member of a fraternity with which he enjoyed his brothers and impacted others. His employment years in Sports Management, the service industry, and lastly with Honda, he touched those around him with his kindness, humility, and love. He cared deeply about everyone.

A Cleveland sports fan through & through, attending as many games as he could, and knowing damn near every player name and stat for the Browns, Cavs, and his favorite Indians.

Our family has lost a son and brother. We will remember Dennis for all the good he brought to us and to everyone else.

We love you, Dennis.

This fundraiser is to help our family in the coming days, weeks, months, and years ahead covering costs, bills, and providing for our mom who Dennis loved & cared for.

To everyone that donates, shares, and sends their love, I cannot thank you all enough.
