Read More	US ARMY - WORLD WAR II and KOREA MOSCOW - Alfred William Dyer Jr., 89, of Moscow, passed away Thursday, Sept, 15, 2016, at the Togus VA Hospital in Chelsea. He was born May 21, 1927, in New Portland, the son of Alfred William Dyer Sr. and Eva (Merrill) Dyer. After high school, he enlisted in the United States Army, serving as an MP during World War II and later during the Korean conflict. He was employed as a custodian as well as a bus driver for the local school department. Earlier, he was the police chief for the town of Mars Hill and a police officer in the town of Bingham. He worked at Quimby's Mill, was a fire warden in Moscow, a long-term member of the Moscow Planning Board, and an accomplished carpenter and builder. He and his wife Alice owned and operated Moose Horn Minis, building doll houses, and were commissioned to build several scale models of historic buildings and museums. For a time he was a woodsman working in the woods. He was a master gardener; in later years his friends and family would come and help him tend to the gardens. He also was a Eucharistic Minister at St. Peters Catholic Church. He was a storyteller, a joker, and a wealth of knowledge. He frequently would say that a man should learn at least one thing every day. Alfred was extremely proud of being a weather watcher for WCSH TV and putting Moscow on the map. Alfred was a kind and loving man who always would do the right thing. He often would set aside things he needed to do just to help someone else out. He enjoyed hunting and fishing, and he was an excellent marksman. He liked to spend time with his family and friends. He will be best remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and good friend. He was predeceased by his loving wife, Alice; they were married 49 years. He also was predeceased by a son, Charles; and a sister, Bertice. Alfred is survived by his children, Cathy McFarlane and her husband Paul of Chelsea, Cindy Kelley and her partner Ted Dahlin of Rhode Island, and Alfred Dyer III and his wife Bonnie of Fairfield. He also leaves behind his grandchildren, Mike, David, Danielle, Alison, Patrick, Rebecca, and Timothy; great-grandchildren, Thomas and Aslan; his brothers, Bertrand Dyer and his wife Alyce of North New Portland, Norman Dyer and his wife Dot of Steep Falls, and Gene Dyer and his wife Janet of Warminster, Pa.; many nieces and nephews; his "naughter," Bonnie Atwood; loving nieces Jackie and Jean; and several special friends, Scotty, Laurie, Tammy, Dana and Sue, just to name a few. Alfred's family would like to thank the hospice unit at Togus for the outstanding care of their dad, and all of Alfred's friends and family for their kindness and support. Burial will be in Baker cemetery in Moscow. Arrangements are under the care and direction of Giberson Funeral Home, Bingham. (Central Maine Newspapers 9/20/2016)
