David Thomas Dwyer, of Liberty, passed away on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, at Baptist Health in Lexington, KY. He was 87.
Born on June 27, 1937, in Galena, Illinois, he was the son of the late Raymond and Edna Temperly Dwyer. David enjoyed reading, listening to country music from the 50s-60s, and sitting outside on his deck watching birds and the traffic go by. He loved antique trucks and tractors, visiting with and talking about his family, seeing pictures and videos of his nieces and nephews, and watching This Old House. One of David’s favorite things was sitting with his loyal best friend, his dog Queenie, who never left his side.
He is survived by his niece, Julie Teasdale of Liberty; a great-niece, Dorothy Teasdale (and Mark) of Michigan; three great-nephews, Brian Teasdale of Monticello, WI, David Teasdale (and Kara) of Bartlett, TN, and Bill Teasdale (and Gele) of Rockton, IL; seven great-great-nephews, Kayden, Marcus, Lance, Heath, Ermuun, William and Kyler; four great-great-nieces, Alaina, Adaline, Mari and Francine; and one great-great-great nephew Kylo.
Along with his parents, David is preceded in death by two brothers, James Dwyer and Dean Dwyer; and three sisters, Dolores Dwyer-O’Neill, Joyce Dwyer and Marcella Dwyer-Nelson.
A memorial service will be held privately at a later date.
Arrangements for Mr. David Thomas Dwyer are entrusted to McKinney-Brown Funeral Home. An online guestbook is available at www.mckinneybrown.com
