John G. Meyer died Wednesday, July 7, 2021, in the local Minot hospital.
John was born December 25, 1946 in Rochester, New York to George and Dorothy (Bunn) Meyer.
John lived a full life that included family, time spent in New Mexico, California and Colorado, where he worked as a ski instructor at Aspen. Zeal for participating in a Bible education work brought him to North Dakota.
John was united in marriage to Shannon Dugan on July 28, 1991 in Minot where they have lived ever since.
As a computer network engineer, John owned and operated Computer Integration in Minot for more than a decade. After the purchase of his motorcycle, he turned a hobby and passion for fabricating custom parts for Harley Davidsons into a business. John sold the business in 2019, but maintained a presence in the industry throughout the decline of his health.
John worked and played hard. Golfing, skiing, playing/repairing musical instruments and finish woodworking were some of his talents. Doing deep research of the Scriptures and sharing what he learned was his passion. He and Shannon enjoyed ski trips to Red Lodge, Montana with family and friends in addition to touring old Victorian homes and antiquing together. John loved to cook and have friends and family over for big meals, especially turkey dinners. He will be deeply missed by all who shared his life.
