Remembering Dr. Dennis Rohrs: Awhile back had contact with Dr. Rohrs through my friend, Kathy Bolchen, who at the time worked in the Fairhaven Main Office. She has now informed me of his passing. I have such fond memories of those years (1964-67) when I played clarinet in his symphonic band at the University of Wisconsin at Whitewater. He was always so good-natured with us, and possessed that rare combination of being in full command, yet able to communicate his love and respect for the manifold aspects of the music we created together. This very example no doubt remained a part of me during the 20 years I performed as solo clarinettist in the Florence Symphony Orchestra (Italy) where I became acquainted with hundreds of different conductors. My heartfelt sympathy to Margaret, his wife, her numerous family and friends. Anita Garriott

Dennis Rohrs was a wonderful Badger Chordhawk member. His love for music touched the lives of many. Dennis was friendly, cheerful, kind and passionate. I am forever grateful for his presence in my life. Thank you Dennis! You have helped me to be who I am today. God Bless. Love to all John Casey Kalkirtz

I dealt with Dennis a number of times during my tenure as UWW archivist and always enjoyed his interest in documenting the history of the Music Department. He was also a long-time member of the Gourmet Club and my husband and I have happy memories of he and his wife being the hosts at the first club dinner we attended. Our sympathies to the family.

He was a influence on 100’s times 1,000. He always had time for anyone and would make you think about your question.

The world has lost a great person. Denny was a great mentor to me when I arrived on campus. His advice was always "spot on". I love passing on the story to current students of how the Warhawk Battle Cry came into being - pure genius! I and thousands of other musicians owe him a huge debt of gratitude for having the vision to found the Warhawk Summer Band Camp over 50 years ago. Christine, Lauren and I and the entire Warhawk Band Family send prayers for comfort to Margaret and the rest of the Rohrs family. Thank you for sharing the incredible soul of Denny. He will always be a part of the band.
With deepest respect and admiration,
Glenn C. Hayes
