Obituary

James A. Hyer, Sr., 94, of Union Beach, peacefully passed away Wednesday, March 22nd, at home surrounded by his family, two days shy of his 95th birthday.

He was raised in Hazlet and lived in Laurence Harbor before settling in Union Beach over 30 years ago. James served in the U.S. Air Force as a crash crewman during WWII. After his discharge from the Service, he met his wife and they married in 1953. James  was a painter at International Container and he also built guitars at Danelectro in Neptune.  
  James enjoyed trips to Atlantic City and Monmouth Park. He loved to be outside in the sun whether it was gardening in his yard, crabbing off the dock or just sitting on the porch with his family. He will fondly be remembered as a devoted and loving husband, father and grandfather.
