Publish in a newspaper
John was a proud graduate of Salesianum School, Class of 1961. After graduation, he worked for General Motors at the Boxwood Road facility for over 24 years until his retirement.
Following his retirement, John pursued his two passions - working as a graphic artist and collecting and restoring classic antique cars with his lifelong friends.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Ellen Marie Casey Dworak and John Edward Dworak, Sr. He is survived by his sisters, MEllen Gray of Ohio and Pamela Boulden of Wilmington, DE; nephew Michael Gray; nieces Liz and Nancy Gray; his special friend and companion, Cynthia Rose Talabisco; and her son, Eric.
His life was a blessing to those that knew him.
A graveside service will be held on Monday, August 18, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at Silverbrook Cemetery, 3300 Lancaster Pike, Wilmington, DE 19805.
