It is with deep sadness that we share the recent news that Dennis Comprone passed away unexpectedly on December 10, 2024. Dennis was hired in August 1985 as a Resident Hall Director holding that role until May 1987 when he was promoted to Facilities Development Manager. In November 2000 Dennis was once again promoted to Building Renovation Projects Director, holding this role until he retired in July 2013.
During Dennis’ 28-year career on campus, he connected with, influenced, and mentored many staff members. He was dedicated to helping grow, shape, and improve the campus. His decision-making was embedded in making the lives of students better overall.
While Dennis may have retired from UConn in 2013, he will always be part of the UConn family.
