John J. Jolovich
1939 - 2017

John Joseph Jolovich, 78, of Casper, Wyoming passed away Monday, October 23, 2017.

He was born April 2, 1939 to the late John and Susie Jolovich in Sheridan, WY and resided in Ranchester, WY. He married Bonnie Boyd in 1956 and they lived together in Ranchester before relocating to Casper in 1964 for a career opportunity with Wyoming Machinery where he worked for 38 years. He started as a Field Mechanic and ended his career as a Technical Advisor.

He and Bonnie started B&J Sport Center, a very successful power sports business, selling Polaris snowmobiles, ATV’s, watercrafts and motorcycles.

He was a very devoted and hardworking man who took pride in his work. He had a magic touch for mechanics, if it was broken he found a way to fix it no matter what it took or how long. His dedication to his work earned him numerous awards for both Caterpillar and Polaris Industries.

He thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors: hunting, snowmobiling and ATV rides. He found peace in the mountains.

John is survived by his wife: Bonnie Jolovich, 2 children: John Jeffery Jolovich of Casper, David Jolovich of Columbus, MT, sister Gayle Knievel of Mesquite, NV, several grandchildren & great grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Rest in peace, you deserve it. We all love you and will miss you.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
