John W. Dyar, age 80, passed away on June 15, 2022 in New Lenox, Illinois, surrounded by his family. He was born November 3, 1941, in Paris, Illinois to Lawrence and Ella Wanita Dyar (nee Owens).

John spent most of his life in the Joliet area and worked at Caterpillar in Channahon, Illinois, for more than 30 years.  After retiring, he spent his days riding his motorcycle and spending time with his family and friends. He was well known and loved by everyone in the area.

John is survived by his son Dane W. (Heather) Dyar of Joliet, IL, his daughter Valerie Dyar of Lockport, IL, his grandson Dane J. Dyar of Joliet, IL, his sister Milena (Bud) Maurer, and his former wife and friend, Lori Dyar of Lockport, IL, as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, friends, and his loyal canine companions Lexi and Rocky.

Per John’s wishes, in lieu of visitation and services, the family will host a Celebration of Life in his honor at a future date. Memorials can be made in John’s memory to the Will County Humane Society or the American Cancer Society.

    I was just a very close person to his grandson and got to know John very well throughout the years of spending time with both of them. He loved cars and motorcycles and I remember he wanted to be in Tennessee because he was tired of the cold weather. He was such a great man and a joy to be around, and I know his grandson loved him very much and took care of him to the best of his abilities and I know John loved him and the rest of his family dearly. He was a great man and left a wonderful legacy, and he taught me how to love Don Julio Tequila and we shared our love for muscle cars. I was a distant friend, but a friend non the less. He will be dearly, truly missed not only by me but the great legacy of friends and family that I know he held deeply in his heart. I send my most sincerest condolences to the family and I’m sending so many prayers.

    Dad, I think about you and miss you 24/7. I love you so much and this has been, by far, the most difficult challenge of my life. I am so thankful to have had you in my life and for everything that you sacrificed for us. I love and miss you.
