The community of Scotts, Michigan and beyond is mourning the loss of Dennis Conklin, a beloved friend, talented voice artist, and compassionate human being.

Dennis, the owner and voice behind Dennis Conklin Voice, LLC, passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a legacy of creativity, warmth, and kindness that will be remembered by all who knew him.

A highly skilled professional in the voice-over industry, Dennis poured his heart into his craft. As the founder of Dennis Conklin Voice, LLC, he brought stories, advertisements, and characters to life with a voice that was both rich and relatable.

His passion for voice-over work was backed by strong academic and technical training. He studied Commercial Voice Over and Audio Engineering at the Columbia School of Broadcasting, and his knowledge of sound and tone was evident in every project he touched.

In addition to running his own voice business, Dennis also worked with Great Lakes Companies, where he was known for his dedication, integrity, and ability to connect with colleagues and clients alike.

His work wasn’t just a job — it was a reflection of his vibrant personality and his deep commitment to doing things well. Dennis’s journey began in Vicksburg High School, and he later continued his education at Kalamazoo Valley Community College.

Those early years shaped a man who valued both learning and community. He carried that spirit into every relationship he built, whether personal or professional. His friends and family are still reeling from the suddenness of his passing.

One heartfelt tribute read:
“I’m completely shocked and extremely saddened by the loss of my good friend, Dennis Conklin. He was one of the kindest humans I know. I will miss him terribly. I’m so grateful that we became close. May the Lord keep you in his grace, and bring peace and comfort to your family and friends who are experiencing this immense loss. I still can’t believe it.”

Those who knew Dennis speak of him not just as a gifted professional, but as someone with an enormous heart. He was the type of person who listened deeply, spoke gently, and always had a word of encouragement ready. He made people feel heard — not just through his work, but through the way he lived.

Dennis’s sudden departure is a tremendous loss for the voice-over and broadcasting community, and an even greater one for his loved ones. His friends, colleagues, and family members will remember him for his authenticity, his warmth, and the comfort his voice brought to so many.

As we mourn Dennis Conklin, we also celebrate a life filled with creativity, kindness, and meaning. May his memory be a blessing, and may those who grieve find peace in knowing he left an indelible mark on every life he touched.
