Nemuel Austin Albea

Nemuel Austin Albea, 23, of Pendleton, passed away on Saturday, July 1, 2023, at Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, Indiana following his long battle with cancer.

He was born on December 6, 1999, in Anderson, Indiana to Nemuel Jeffrey Albea and Debra Sue (Gladney) Albea.

Austin graduated from Continental Academy in 2018. He had previously attended Pendleton Heights High School.

He enjoyed playing his guitars, listening to music, jamming out at concerts, playing games, going fishing, and hanging out with his best friends, Korey Layman, Nick Miller and Seria. Out of them all, his favorite thing to do was spending time with his family and loved ones. He attended Bethel Baptist Church in Lapel.

Austin is survived by his father, Jeffrey and Debra Albea of Pendleton; two brothers, Dustin (wife Cheyenne) Albea of Anderson and Steven (wife, Tabitha) Albea of Noblesville; two grandmothers, Charlene Gladney and Roberta Jean Lowry; six uncles, Timmy (wife, Julie) Gladney,  Roby (wife, Linda) Bain, Michael (wife, Jodi) Bain, Paul Gladney Jr. and John Gladney; three aunts, Paula (husband, Tony) Smart, Jeri Albea and Jane Mulkey; four nephews, Quentin Albea, Jaxon Albea, Leland Albea and Oliver Albea; two nieces, Sophia Albea and Raven Hoskins; nine cousins, Travis Gladney, Brittany Gladney, Destany Smart, Corey Smart, Tiffany Barker, Whitni Ivey, Jordan Cleckley, Sydni Cleckley and Desiree Albea.

He was preceded in death by his grandfathers, Paul Gladney and Nemuel Ray Albea; and a cousin, Kyler Cleckley.

Austin was not just a loving son or brother. He was an amazing uncle. He had the biggest heart and the most amazing, kind and loving soul. He had the type of character that he would give you the shirt off his back to just help. His smile and his laugh were so contagious that anyone having a bad day would feel better just being around him. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends because there will never be another one like him. Austin was one of a kind.

A funeral service will be held at 1:00 PM on Thursday, July 6, 2023, at Hersberger-Bozell Funeral Home, 1010 North Main Street, Lapel, Indiana 46051 with Roby Marshall Bain and Pastor Jimmy Gilbert officiating. Burial will follow at Brookside Cemetery in Lapel.
