Dennis Wayne Wyatt, age 80, of Noblesville, passed away peacefully at home and went to be with his lord and savior on Oct. 4, 2022.
He was born in Middlesboro, Kentucky on April 7, 1942, to parents, John D. & Edith M. (Williams) Wyatt.
On Nov. 21, 1962, Mr. Wyatt married his lifelong sweetheart Rebecca J. (Fulton) Wyatt. The couple would have celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary this year.
Mr. Wyatt was a graduate of Noblesville High School, class of 1960. After graduation, he joined the US Air Force where he served as part of the Strategic Air Command from 1960 – 1964. Upon leaving the Airforce he moved back to Noblesville where he began his career with Firestone Industrial Rubber Products where he worked as a supervisor until he retired in 1992. He then took a position with Noblesville Schools where he was an integral part in the growth of the facilities and grounds over his nearly 18-year tenure with the school system.
Mr. Wyatt was very active in the Noblesville community over his lifetime. He was involved in youth athletics and volunteered his time to various other organizations throughout the Noblesville community. He was also a member and Past Master of Noblesville Masonic Lodge 57. In his spare time, he was an avid car aficionado. He enjoyed buying and restoring classic cars including dozens of corvettes which were his true passion.
Mr. Wyatt was the embodiment of a Christian and a family man. Few things brought him as much joy as his grandchildren and he was the ultimate loving Grandfather, which earned him the title of “Best Papa/Papaw” by all of his grandchildren. Mr. Wyatt worked diligently in all aspects of life to ensure that his family could enjoy and reach their own success in life. He passed along a great work ethic and family values to everyone he met. After his retirement he replaced work with family. He valued family above all else and took every moment possible to be with them. Anyone who knew him, was aware that out of all his accomplishments, the one Mr. Wyatt was most proud of was his family.
