Guss Jay Denna, age 52, and a resident of Pierceton, passed away quietly on Monday, Aug. 23, 2021, at 7:15 p.m. in Peabody Retirement Community. He had battled Alzheimer’s for several years.

Born in Lake Tahoe, Calif., on Jan. 4, 1969, Guss was the son of the late Glen Denna and the late Virginia Moody Denna. He spent his formative years in nearby Gardnerville, Nev., and graduated there from Douglas High School. On June 4, 1996, Guss was married to Angela Britton. She survives in Pierceton.

An ornery person with a fun-loving personality, Guss was a machinist at Biomet for many years. He enjoyed time spent outdoors and loved hunting and fishing. He also enjoyed watching football, especially the Colts and Broncos. He was a huge fan of Peyton Manning. He also enjoyed UFC fights and was an honorably discharged veteran of the United States Army.

In addition to his wife, Angela, those who survive include three children: daughter, Amanda (Aaron) Webb, of Roanoke; and sons: Nathan and Dakota Denna, of Pierceton. He is also survived by 10 siblings and was preceded in passing by one sister, in addition to his parents.

Friends may join the family for a time of visitation and viewing at Titus Funeral Home and Cremation Services, 2000 E. Sheridan St., Warsaw, on Sunday, Aug. 29 from 1 to 3 p.m. Beginning at 3 p.m., Titus Funeral Home’s Sharon Brockhaus will officiate Guss’ Life Celebration® service. Burial will be in South Lake Tahoe, California at Happy Homestead Cemetery.
