John Alan Opar, Esq., age 54 of Wayne, died suddenly and unexpectedly on Wednesday, October 15, 2014. John specialized in Real Estate Law and had been practicing for nearly thirty years.

John was born in Chicago and moved to Wayne when he was just three years old. He graduated from Wayne Hills High School with the class of 1978 and received his Bachelor’s degree from Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts. He earned his law degree from Seton Hall and was admitted to the New Jersey Bar in 1985. John had his own practice for most of his career, primarily serving as a Real Estate attorney, performing countless home closings. He truly enjoyed his work and the many clients and friends that he made over the years.

John was a huge sports fan and anything athletic was interesting to him. He followed baseball, basketball, football; you name it. He was a fanatic when it came to sports. He was also very fun and outgoing, easily making friends. He enjoyed a little bit of travel over the years and liked to follow politics, although he never became politically involved himself.

Sadly, John is survived by his heartbroken mother; Mildred “Millie” Opar of Wayne and one sister; Mary Opar of Maryland. He was predeceased by his father; John in 1993 and by his three aunts and three uncles.
