Darrell Nonweiler

Darrell Nonweiler, a cherished husband, brother, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on February 7, 2026, in Newburgh, at the age of 75. Born on December 18, 1950, in Evansville, Darrell's life was a testament to the enduring power of love, hard work, and the simple joys that make a life well-lived.

Darrell's journey began as the beloved son of Charles and Martha Nonweiler, who preceded him in passing, along with his brother Stephen Nonweiler and sister Julie Montgomery. His early years in Evansville were filled with the laughter and camaraderie of a large and loving family, a theme that would resonate throughout his life.

He shared over five decades of marriage with his devoted wife, Barbara Nonweiler, who stood by him as a beacon of love and support. Together, they raised their daughter Laurie Wolfe, who married Brian and blessed Darrell with two granddaughters, Anna and Ashley Wolfe. Darrell's role as a grandfather was one of his most treasured, as he imparted wisdom, kindness, and the occasional mischievous grin that endeared him to his granddaughters.

Darrell's brothers, Roger and Stanley Nonweiler, and his sister, Janet Porter, along with many more family members, will remember him as a man who loved and cherished his kin with every fiber of his being. His gentle spirit and handy nature made him the go-to person for family and friends alike when something needed fixing or a kind word was needed.

Professionally, Darrell dedicated over 50 years to the steel industry, where his strong work ethic and commitment to his craft earned him the respect and admiration of his colleagues. His involvement in various associations within the industry further showcased his passion for his work and his desire to contribute to the community he held so dear.

Beyond his professional life, Darrell was a man of diverse interests. He was an avid football fan, reveling in the thrills of the game and the camaraderie it inspired. His artistic side found expression in his appreciation for art, while his love for word searches revealed a mind that was always engaged and seeking new challenges.

Above all, Darrell loved people. His gentle demeanor and ability to connect with others on a genuine level made him a beloved figure in his community. His legacy is one of kindness, reliability, and the quiet strength that characterizes a life well-lived.

As we bid farewell to Darrell Nonweiler, we celebrate a life that was rich in love, laughter, and the countless small moments that, when woven together, create the tapestry of a beautiful life. He will be deeply missed, but his spirit will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know him. Darrell's memory will be cherished and kept alive in the hearts of his family, friends, and all who were touched by his gentle, handy nature.
