John C. Omlor

JOHN C. OMLOR, 61, of Sidney passed away at 8:25 A.M. Sunday, April 13, 2025 at his residence. He was born on November 2, 1963 in Fremont, Ohio, the son of the late Earl and Roberta (Brinninger) Omlor.

On August 19, 2023 he married Norma Barhorst-Omlor, who survives, along with stepsons, Nathan Burkholder, and Scottie Williams; grandchildren, McKenna (Josh), Brayden, Dylan, and Ciara Williams; great-grandson, Timothy Williams; siblings, Steve (Diana) Omlor, and Stephanie (Kevin) Keener; mother-in-law, Mary Looker; siblings-in-law, Terri Barhorst, Susie (John) Tewalt, and Robert (Tracy) Barhorst; and nieces and nephews, Nathaniel (Kelsey) Omlor, Michael (Maria) Omlor, and Kylie (Drew) Seedorf. He was preceded in death by one stepson, Timothy Williams; and father-in-law, Robert Barhorst.

John was a proud United States Army veteran and a dedicated millwright throughout his career. He most recently worked at International Motors (Navistar) in Springfield, Ohio, where he truly loved his work and the people he worked alongside. His “final watch” with his coworkers took place on March 27th. John was known for his love of laughter and his playful spirit. He especially enjoyed pulling pranks just to see people’s reactions. He never met a stranger and had a rare gift for getting along with everyone. A lifelong fan of the Cincinnati Reds and Bengals. “Who Dey!”

No public services will be held at this time. The family will hold a celebration of life service at their convenience on a later date. Arrangements are in the care of Cromes-Edwarsd Funeral Home. Condolences may be expressed to the family at, www.cromesfh.com
