John Wesley Donelan, 47, passed away Monday, May 16, 2022 in Casper, Wyoming with his family by his side.
John was born July 2, 1974 in Laramie, Wyoming to Jerry and Janet Donelan. John graduated from Saratoga High School in 1992 and received a BS in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wyoming in 1997, where he also played football as a defensive end. John married Angie Anselmi on March 31, 2000 in Pinedale, Wyoming. John was blessed to gain a step-son, Luke McConville, and had two children, Beau and Ruby.
John worked as an electrical engineer for General Chemical and PacifiCorp for 11 years before starting his own business, P Cubed Technical Services. John was also co-owner of Deer Haven RV Park in Saratoga, Wyoming with his sister, Pam Johnson, since 2021.
John was an avid hunter, fisherman, and outdoorsman. He was a kind and caring person and a great friend to many. His generosity was only exceeded by his wit. His larger than life personality and great sense of humor always brightened the room. He enjoyed spending as much time as he could working on his cabin in the Medicine Bow National Forest. Above all, John especially loved his children and family, spending as much time with them as he could. He loved to travel to Luke and Beau's hockey games and Ruby's volleyball and football games. John loved to play poker, and especially Craps, anytime he got to Vegas!
John is survived by his three children, Luke McConville, Beau Donelan, and Ruby Donelan; his mother, Janet Donelan; his sister, Pamala Johnson and her husband Robert Johnson, and his brother, Gregory Donelan and his wife Nilsa Donelan. John is also survived by one niece, four nephews, his best buddy Kash, and many wonderful friends.
John was preceded in death by his brother, Randy Donelan, father, Jerry Donelan, and grandparents whose deaths brought clarity to the value and sacredness of family.
