Denny Molyneaux

Dennis A. Molyneaux II, 48, passed away peacefully on Wednesday November 11, 2026 with family by his side at the Cleveland Clinic Hospital. He was preceded in death by his father, Dennis Sr. (2010), and an older brother, Denny Bob (1974). He leaves behind a daughter (Cheyenne Starr), his mother Elizabeth "Betty" Molyneaux, and siblings Denise (Dell) Craaybeek, Kelly (Michael) Rose, Kristin Molyneaux, and Sean Molyneaux, as well as 7 nieces and nephews, 10 great-nieces and nephews, and countless friends across the country. He was the first baby born at East Suburban Hospital in Monroeville. In his younger years he was a boy scout and an altar server. He studied to be an electrician at Kaplan ICM and worked first at Cleaveland/Price, at General Electric, and had his own business “It’s Electric.” He taught classes for the IBEW. He also studied locksmithing at Penn Hills Lock & Door and owned his own business, “It’s Lock & Key.” He shared those skills generously with friends who needed his help as well as with organizations such as the American Legion, Eagles, and the Verona Moose where he served as Governor. He could play the piano and he loved to sing, whether in the choir with his dad or at karaoke. He loved to ride his Harley and was an American Legion Patriot Guard rider, and in later years he enjoyed traveling the country in his RV with his cat Lucky. He had a YouTube presence (FTRVdenny) through which he shared his adventures as well as tips on electrical work. He always tried to help those in need, including using his sense of humor if what they needed most was a smile. Denny was an absolute people person who seemed to know someone anywhere he went – and if he didn’t know anyone, then he got to know them. He took pride in his family’s Irish heritage and made a point of establishing and maintaining those connections around the country.
