Lobin Dean Wylie, 85, of Doylestown, passed away peacefully in his sleep on June 28th,
2023.
Lobin was born in Garrard, Kentucky to Haison and Pearl Wylie. He was the beloved
brother of his sisters: Valora (Val) and Alteha (Pat), and brothers: Granton (Cliff), Marvin
and Stacy.
During his early years, he had many accomplishments, including being named prom king.
One accomplishment he was particularly proud of was that he played on his high school
basketball team in which him and his four teammates went on to be the number one
ranked team in all of Kentucky.
Lobin moved to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania soon after he graduated high school. It was
there that Lobin started a family and raised four children: Steven, Richard, Trish and
Timothy. He moved to Bucks County in 1967 and put down roots. He worked in the dairy
industry for over 35 years. His son, Timothy, lovely likes to joke that he ‘is the milkman’s
son’. When he was not working, he enjoyed coaching his sons, Steven and Richard, on
their baseball teams. In 1976, he purchased his home in Westwyk in the Doylestown
Borough where he resided until his illness.
Besides the company of his family, Lobin, or just Dean as he was also known, cherished
his time spent with the dog show community. He was an active member in several of the
local and national dog clubs, including the Hatboro Dog Club, Delaware Valley German
Shepard Club, the German Shepard Club of America and the American Kennel Club. He
was a member of the Delaware Valley German Shepard Club and the Hatboro Dog Club
for over 50 years and held the position of President in both at one point. He enjoyed
judging at shows as well as sharing his knowledge and providing guidance to newcomers
and other members. He cherished the relationships he made over his five decades with
the clubs and considered them his second family.
Later In life, Lobin continued to attend shows when he was able and enjoyed traveling to
them with his daughter, Trish. He could also be found visiting his son, Timothy, at his
restaurant. Before his illness, you could guarantee on finding Lobin in one of the corner
tables at Nat’s Pizza enjoying a bottle of ice tea while he worked on scratching off a few of
his favorite crossword scratch off tickets.
Lobin is survived by three of his children, Steven, his wife Colleen, Timothy and Trish, as
well as his two grandchildren, Katelyn and Kyle.
