Dennis L. Eichenauer, age 76, of rural Celina, passed away on Thursday, August 8, 2024, at Mercy Health - St. Rita's Medical Center in Lima. He was born February 2, 1948, in Celina, to the late Kenneth E. & Luella A. Hellwarth Eichenauer. Denny and Beverly Ables were married on July 10, 1971, and Bev preceded him in death March 12, 2013.
He is survived by their daughter and son-in-law: Becky & Dusty Weitzel, 3 grandchildren: Katie (Jordan) Rodriguez, Emily Weitzel, and Carson Weitzel, a great-grandson, Jack Rodriguez, and great-granddaughter, Mabel Rodriguez, all of Celina, and his brother and sister-in-law: Calvin & Carolyn Eichenauer of Wabash, IN.

A 1966 graduate of Celina Senior High School, Denny served in the Army National Guard. He was a member of Grand Lake United Methodist Church - St. Paul's Campus, in Celina.
A lifelong farmer in Hopewell and Jefferson Townships, Denny absolutely loved being outdoors and in the fields. Denny was the owner-operator of Eichenauer Farms and Construction. When not in the fields, Denny and his son-in-law, Dusty, were busy on many building projects in the local area.
Work was Denny's life, but he also reserved time for family. For nearly 45 years, Denny took a week long annual vacation to Florida, spending quality time with the whole family. He also focused on attending his grandchildren's events, rarely missing a game. His family, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were everything to him.
