John Howard Driemeyer

John Driemeyer, 75, passed away on March 31, 2026, in Sacramento, California. Born on September 27, 1950, John lived a full life dedicated to his family and friends, career, and passions.

A proud graduate of Sacramento State, John built a meaningful career at the Office of Emergency Services, where he focused on disaster response efforts. His work reflected his commitment to helping others during times of need.

An avid sports enthusiast, John loved almost any sport, especially golf and baseball. He found immense happiness sharing new sports with his grandchildren. He was a devoted Dodgers fan.

John was an incredibly thoughtful and caring man. His calm demeanor and willingness to help family and friends made him the person to call when in need. He was proud to be a member of the “Wassum Ten” grandkids and built lifelong friendships growing up in Sacramento. He frequently reminisced about family vacations to the beach, Disneyland, and Southern California.

John’s greatest joy was his family and friends. He will be deeply missed by daughters Jaime Aguilar (Candido) and Jennifer Gonzalez (Cuauhtemoc) and his cherished grandchildren Joaquin, Emma, Emerson, Atlas, and Holden. He also leaves behind siblings Margie Bowe (Bill) and Edward Driemeyer (Ann); nieces and nephews Jeanna, Nena, Nick, and Nathan; Aunt Joan Teale, Uncle Bart Lagomarsino; along with extended family members; dear friends Danny, Myron, and many others.
