Darlene Frances Korbel was born on March 14th, 1959 in Hudson, NY and passed away peacefully on July 25th, 2023 in her home with family in Middleboro, MA.
Darlene grew up in Hudson with her parents, Sylvia and Walter Novack, and her two older siblings, Debbie Novack and Walter Novack Jr.
Starting in 1988, Darlene worked at Becton Dickison, where she met her husband, David Korbel. Darlene and David got married on March 12, 1994 in Niagara Falls.
Darlene is survived by her loving family which includes her husband David, her four children (Jennifer Cotte, Thomas Carmody, Brittany Korbel, Dylan Korbel), and by her three grandchildren (Jameson Rogers, Benjamin Carmody, Jaden Cotte). She will be incredibly missed and remembered for her unique sense of humor, being creative and adventuresome, and for her unconditional love and pride she had towards her family.
In lieu of flowers, the family has asked to consider making a donation to the National Kidney Foundation in honor of Darlene. She fought for 4 years against End Stage Renal Disease. The National Kidney Foundation supported not only Darlene through this difficult time but her family as well.
