John W. Dwyer

John W. Dwyer, age 81, of Oak Creek, WI passed away on May 2nd 2025, surrounded by the love of his family.

John was a hardworking man who spent much of his life on the farm, where he found purpose and peace in the land he cared for. He had a deep love for the outdoors and could often be found with a fishing pole in hand, enjoying the quiet moments by the water. John also had a passion for collecting, always on the lookout for unique items that caught his eye.

More than anything, John cherished time with his family. Whether gathered around a meal or working side by side, he found joy in their company and took great pride in the life they shared together.

He will be remembered for his strong work ethic, gentle spirit, and the warmth he brought to those around him.

He is survived by his brother Patrick Dwyer and sister-in-law Darlene Dwyer; his niece Kim (Jason) Neubecker; numerous nieces and nephews; and a close-knit group of friends from his apartment community who brought joy and companionship into his daily life.

John was preceded in death by his mother, Dorothy Dwyer, and father, James Dwyer; his brothers Jim and Jerry; his sister Judy Kolz; and his nephew Patrick Dwyer Jr.

A Memorial Service will be held on Thursday, May 15th at 10AM at Forest Hill Memorial Park.

Though he is no longer with us, John’s legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
