Nicky Joel Demar

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Nicky Demar, who left this world on April 6, 2025, in Morristown, Vermont, at the age of 58. Born on December 5, 1966, Nicky touched the lives of all who knew him with his warm spirit, unwavering dedication, and passion for life.

Nicky was the beloved son of Linda Demar and was preceded in death by his father, Lawrence Demar. He is survived by his cherished son, Edward Adams, and his wife, Brittany Adams, along with his adored grandson, Emmett Adams. Nicky had a profound love for his family and took great pride in being a devoted father and grandfather.
He is also survived by his siblings: his brother, Larry Demar Jr. and his partner, Allison Perkett; his sister, Jody Benoit; his sister, Melanie Anukem and her husband, Victor Anukem; his brother, Kevin Demar and his wife, Lori Demar; and his sister, Ila King and her husband, Steve King. The bonds of siblinghood were strong for Nicky, and he held each of them close to his heart. He also leaves behind many loving nieces and nephews, all of whom were touched by his generosity, humor, and unwavering support.

Throughout his life, Nicky was known for his work ethic and diverse skills. He dedicated many years as a mechanic, logger, and heavy equipment operator, earning the respect of colleagues and friends alike. His hands were always busy, whether in the garage, on the job site, or tending to family projects, reflecting his passion for working with machinery and nature.

In addition to his professional endeavors, Nicky was a man of many interests. He found joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as playing horseshoes, hunting, and fishing. These activities not only brought him happiness but also served as cherished moments shared with family and friends. He was an enthusiastic participant in tractor pulling, where his competitive spirit truly shone. Nicky also had a special bond with his loyal dog, Buster, who was his faithful companion through many of life's adventures.

Nicky's life was characterized by his deep love for family, his dedication to his work, and his passion for the outdoors. He leaves behind a legacy of hard work, laughter, and love, and he will be sorely missed by all who had the fortune to know him.

As we celebrate the life of Nicky Demar, we remember a man who made a lasting impact on many lives. His warmth, humor, and kindness will forever remain in our hearts as we honor his memory. A private service will be held at a later date for family and close friends to pay their respects and share in the joy of Nicky’s life.

Rest in peace, Nicky. You will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

A Graveside Service will be held on Sunday, June 29th in Lake Elmore Cemetery followed by a Celebration of Life gathering from 1-4pm at the VFW in Hyde Park.
