Darrell Weber Obituary
He attended school in Sanborn and South St. Paul, MN. He later attended Macalester College and Colgate University before enlisting in the U.S. Army, where he was honored to be chosen for the Old Guard in Arlington, VA. He proudly served as an Honor Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and later served on the U.S. Army drill team, where he stood guard over John F. Kennedy's casket in the Rotunda.
He met Nancy Leighton on a blind date in 1962 and married her in 1963. After graduating from University of Minnesota, he joined IBM in Minneapolis, MN, where he worked until he retired, moving from MN to MA and finally to NC.
Darrell is survived by his wife Nancy, children Wendy Weber Deeds (Jim) and Jeff, grandchildren Oliver and Clementine Deeds, brother Larry Weber (Bea), sister Lois Benson (Allen), several nieces and nephews, and his beloved dogs Coco and Benji. A memorial service will be held in Minnesota in 2023.
Donations may be given to the Pulmonary Fibrosis Association or to the Black Dog Rescue in Smithfield, NC in his memory.

To Darrell's family - I never met him in person only through Tomb Guard Zoom - a delight - now disappointed I'll need to wait until my final post. God Bless you Darrell and as we discussed previously "Go Gophers!"

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Darrell and I were Tomb Guards at the same time.
