William 'Bill' C. Dyer was born to Alvin C. Dyer and Jane Schellentrager Dyer of Geauga, OH. Bill graduated from West Geauga High School and earned a bachelor's degree from the University of Denver. A man of few words, Bill was an avid sports fan with a dry sense of humor who enjoyed watching games, trading stocks, and spending time with his family. He was called home to the Lord on August 11, 2024, with his loving wife of 31 years by his side.

Bill leaves behind his wife Jeannine Dyer of North Royalton, OH, his step-children whom he loved as his own, Ryan (Courtney) Steigmeier of Brecksville, OH, and Kimberly (John) Mullins of Mount Eden, KY, his grandchildren Emily and Matthew Mullins, his brother Robert 'Bobby' (Aimee) Dyer of Copley, OH, his nieces Carrie (Zack) Elrod of Columbus, OH, and Kimmie (Richard) Ward of Columbus, OH, his great-niece Mabel Jane Elrod, and his great-nephew Tatum Beck Ward.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Alvin C. Dyer and Jane Schellentrager Dyer.

A private service will be held at Hummel Funeral Home. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Donations can be made in William's honor to the Northeast Ohio Chapter of the Down Syndrome Association at https://www.dsaneo.org/giving/donations/
