Brian N. “Mongo” Wenner
December 15, 1971 - March 4, 2022
Brian N. “Mongo” Wenner, age 50, of Earleville, MD, passed away on Friday, March 4, 2022.
Born in Baltimore, MD, on December 15, 1971, he was a son of Robert F. and Sandra (Stevens) Wenner. Brian worked as a maintenance technician at a Maryland marina and was known for his ability to fix anything. He was known to his fellow paintball enthusiasts as “Mongo” for his imposing stature on the playing field. Brian was an avid reader which made him a champion at trivia. Fishing and hunting gave Brian his quiet time with nature. He loved to cook and took great pleasure in seeing people enjoy what he had prepared. He spent several years working alongside his father with horses and cattle. As a teenager he was the “goose man” at Delaware Park, herding geese off the turf course to avoid accidents while the horses were running and later worked as an assistant starter. Brian will be remembered for his quick wit, creativity, and willingness to help whenever needed.
In addition to his parents, he is survived by his loving wife, Kimberly (Lewis) Wenner; brother, Michael Wenner (Stacy); children, Brittny Coleman, and Robert Coleman; granddaughter, Alina Rini; nieces, Alexis and Delaney Wenner; and nephew, Tyler Noethiger.
A visitation for family and friends will be held from 12 pm until 1 pm on Thursday, March 24, 2022, at First Presbyterian Church of Newark, 292 West Main Street, Newark, DE, where a memorial service will begin at 1 pm. Interment will be held privately.
In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made in Brian’s memory to Child Inc, 507 Philadelphia Pike, Wilmington, DE 19809 or online by clicking here.

I miss you so much handsome! Now you’re not in pain anymore. But I’m selfish, I want a hug, a kiss, or how you used to wink at me throughout the day just because. The pain of missing you runs deep! It was to soon!!!!! I love you with all my heart ❤️😘, honey

To the family and friends of Mr. Wenner always cherish the fond memories of time spent together and although you may grieve the Bible can be a source of comfort. At (Revelation 21:3,4) it speaks of a time when there will be no more sickness or death, also at (Acts 24:15) it speaks of a resurrection that we all can look forward to. May the peace and love of the God of all comfort be with you all. Comfort can be found in our Creator through prayer and through his word the Bible and in Jesus Christ.

HOPE!! That’s what we have, those sure and certain promise’s that are in scripture of the life everlasting. Brian’s pain is gone thanks to the mercies of God Our Heavenly Father. Those of us who are left behind miss his presence but we know where he is and it sparks a time of anticipation knowing in the sweet bye and bye we will be reunited. Until that time we have that sure and certain hope/knowledge that he is with his Heavenly Father.
For those of us left behind May the Peace of God our Father, the love of The Great Shepherd of the Fold and the Spirit of the Holy Spirt be with all of us now and for ever more.
