About this campaign

These shirts will be your official entry into the 5K run/walk (July 3, 2017) and hopefully a reminder of the wonderful and jovial spirit Dennis brought to the Decorah, Iowa community.

Dennis Ruen had a heart of gold. He was caring, supportive, loving, goofy, and all things wonderful. He loved painting, working with his hands, chatting with everyone in the community, playing cribbage with friends, scooting around on the ultimate frisbee field, listening to Neil Young, and spending time with his four daughters and their families. Sadly, December 2016 he passed away unexpectedly from multiple strokes. He will always be greatly missed but cherished exponentially by his family, friends, and the community.

To honor his love for life and time with family and friends, his daughters invite you to run or walk alongside them to raise money for the arts. All proceeds from the Tshirts will be donated in Dennis Ruen’s name to Art Haus, a local arts organization. Dennis loved painting and was an advocate for the arts, supporting his family’s interests in the arts, local artists, and his own by participating in numerous community art walks, contests, and shows.

These shirts will be your official entry into the 5K run/walk and hopefully a reminder of the wonderful and jovial spirit Dennis brought to the Decorah, Iowa community. The run/walk will take place in Decorah, Iowa July 3, 2017. For more information please check out the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DRuenmemorialrunwalk/

Dennis left us too soon. We regret that we never met him, but we feel like we know him through his wonderful daughter, Landa, who shares her father's passion for the arts. We want to support the Ruen sisters and the cause that their father held dear.

I couldn't have become the person I am without having such an amazing Dad. He loved so unconditionally, cheered me on through all of life's ups and downs, and always encouraged my artistic endeavors with great enthusiasm. I'd run forever for him <3

We are supporting this campaign because we knew Dennis and loved him. He was a ray of sunshine and always made us laugh. We also are very happy to support Art Haus in the Decorah community as one of us is an art teacher and the other an art admirer.

Dennis was truly an individual. He had a unique outlook on life and cared deeply about many different causes, his community, and especially the people he was close to. I will miss him and I'm very happy honor his memory this way.
