Arnold J. Chynoweth

Arnold "Arnie" J. Chynoweth, 81, of De Pere, passed away peacefully on October 17, 2026, surrounded by his loving family. Arnold was born on April 29, 1945 in Two Rivers to William Chynoweth and Claribel Jacquart-Abbet.

Arnold was the maintenance operator and Zamboni driver at Brown County Youth Ice Center (now Corner Stone Community Center) for over 30 years. He was extremely proud of his work and enjoyed all the friends that came with it.

Arnold was an avid golfer his entire life, even joining a few leagues throughout the years. After working hard all winter providing ice to the hockey players, Arnold looked forward to his summers on the green. His love of golf allowed him to see many places around the country, Myrtle Beach being his favorite.

Later on, Arnold met his dog and best friend, Max. Anywhere that Arnie was, Max was right there with him. They were inseparable.

Above everything else, Arnold's world revolved around his children and grandchildren.

Arnold is survived by his children: Tara Lynn, Gordon Wilker, Shawn Wilker, Mike Chynoweth, Chris Stephan; his many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; his siblings: Bonita Strauss, Brenda (Jeff)McLaughlin, and Donna Abbet.

Arnold is preceded in death by his parents and his siblings: Fred Chynoweth, Mona Wagner, and Earl Abbet.

A Celebration of Life for Arnold will be held on Saturday, October 24, 2026 from 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM at Newcomer Funeral Home (340 S. Monroe Avenue, Green Bay, WI 54301). A Prayer Service will take place at 12:00 PM.
