David W. Kudary, age 75,of Niles, passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 25, 2025 surrounded by family. Dave is survived by his dear wife, Marlene, his children, Chuck Kudary (Krystal), Jaime Zachar (Joe), and Amanda Musmanno (Anthony), and his siblings Darlene Drovdlic, Linda Lisko, Jack Kudary, and Cindy Dickey. He was a proud grandfather to five grandchildren; and a great-grandfather to two great-grandchildren.
He was a devoted son and preceded in death by his mother, Alberta Kudary and his sister Esther Mogg.
Dave retired from General Motors in 2001 after a long and hard-working career. Known for his knack for fixing just about anything, he could always be counted on to lend a hand or solve a problem. During retirement he enjoyed spending his days playing pool and golf, where he formed many friendships. He had a playful and goofy sense of humor and had a special gift for making people laugh.
Dave will be remembered for his quick wit, generous spirit, and the love he shared with his family and friends. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. A celebration of life will be held at Dickey's (27 N. Meridian Rd, Youngstown, Ohio) on Sunday, November 9th from 1 to 4 p.m.
