James E. Willgruber Jr.

James (Jim) E. Willgruber, Jr., of Sewickley, age 44, born July 22, 1981; died September 11, 2025 at Passavant Hospital, McCandless. 
Son of Kelly (Dalesandro) Muders and Step-son of David Muders. He leaves behind one sister Dina (Willgruber) Johns (Jake), and a step-sister Christy (Muders) Sexton (Justin McCurak). Proud nephew of Scott & Rose Dalesandro, and Tracy (Dalesandro) Barnes. Grandson of the late Joseph and Helen (Mark) Dalesandro. Jim has three nieces Haylee, Cholayna (Layni) and Peytyn Johns, two nephews Jakob Jones and William Sexton, and has numerous cousins and a special friend Amanda. 

Jim never married because he didn't want the drama. He had a heart of gold and would help anyone if he could. In 2005, he and a few of his friends went to New Orleans to help retrieve vehicles from hurricane Katrina. He was a truck driver and very proud of it. He loved to talk about cars and the past & current events. He liked to prank people and agitate them, too. He loved going to the buffets at the casinos and trying new foods. 

Jim was loved by so many and touched all our hearts. He left behind so many, many great memories and he will be sadly missed, forever in our hearts.

Funeral services are private.
