William H. “Bill” Dymond Jr. age 58 of Oak Ridge, NJ. drifted peacefully to life eternal on Monday January 23, 2012 at home surrounded by his loving family.

He was born in Paterson, raised in Wayne and spent his adult life in Lake Hopatcong, NJ. He received his education first at Ryerson Elementary School, then at George Washington Middle School and then at Wayne Hills High School. In his early years, his mother saw to it that, he spent much time at the United Methodist Church in Wayne attending Sunday school and Church. He was also a cub scout and played Little League Baseball in Wayne.

Bill was by nature a hard working man. His first job was as a paper boy – delivering the local paper in the old neighborhood in Wayne. In his teen years he worked as a car hop at Stewarts Root Beer Stand, coming home with a fistful of tips and smelling of french fries and root beer. His interest in cars lead him to a job in an auto body shop where he restored a 1965 Mustang among many other cars.

His life job into adulthood was as a Roofer for Barbuto Roofing Company in Wayne for over thirty years. His specialty was hot tar flat roofs. He retired from roofing and became an employee at Home Depot in Dover. Health concerns forced him to retire from work in 2003.

Bill enjoyed spending time on Lake Hopatcong boating and fishing. He had a natural affinity to water, be it a lake, the ocean, a river or a pool. If it held water - he was drawn to it. He was a participant in building and racing of remote control cars on the Jefferson race track. He also enjoyed watching NASCAR and was an avid New York Giants fan. Bill was an animal lover and had several devoted pets throughout his life. He also enjoyed riding his motorcycle and restoring his 1975 Corvette Sting Ray. Without a doubt, his most important dedication within his life was to his family. They were his first priority. He was a good provider, working hard all of his life to do so. He was a wonderful, loving father who was a protector and a teacher to his children. He loved his children from infinity and beyond and they were a very important part of his life. They filled his heart with pride.

“Thank you Dad for being so special in our lives, you’ve taught us what is important in life and to cherish everyday you have with one another.”

Bill and his wife Linda met and began a strong, loving relationship for 2 ½ years. They then joined in marriage on July 31, 1982. They have shared a beautiful daughter Krystle and two sons Billy and Brian. They have also been blessed with four grandchildren; Joshua, Jake, Olivia and Dakota Lynn. And also, Bills best buddy and side kick Maxi.

Bill and Linda enjoyed the company of each other. Whether it was boating, riding Bills motorcycle, taking family vacations to the Jersey Shore or Lake George and just recently cruising….even if it was to no where. Anytime spent together was special to them. Bill also enjoyed the company of close family and friends. This all has made the past 29 years so memorable to both Bill and Linda, and also to all that knew and loved Bill.

Surviving to mourn his loss from their life journey are his loving wife Linda (nee Pavia) Dymond; one daughter Krystle of Jefferson Twp.; two sons Billy and his wife Christine of Virginia Beach, Virginia and Brian and his wife Michele of Old Bridge; four sisters Linda Labazzetta and her husband George of Franklin, Judy Perry and her husband Rick of Bedford, New Hampshire, Cindy Fernicola and her husband Chuck of Rockaway and Laura Jean Korkes and her husband Andy of Wayne; four grandchildren Joshua, Jake, Olivia and Dakota Lynn. He is also survived by his in-laws, Ronnie and Cathy Pavia of Brick, Barbara and Pat Hagerty of Pequannock, Debbie and Glenn Ulrich of Garfield, and many nieces and nephews.

Those planning an expression of sympathy in Bill’s memory are asked to consider The Columbia Presbyterian Hospital Transplant Unit, 622 West 168th Street, PH14, New York, NY 10032.
