Stephen A. Kuntz

Stephen A. Kuntz loved nature, his family, and his solidarity. He lived a full life from his birth on Aug. 27, 1942, until his death on Aug. 30, 2018. He was raised on the banks of the Mississippi River in Hannibal, Missouri, where he camped out in Mark Twain’s Cave and relished his relationship with his grandparents Clede and EL Hancock. In adulthood, Steve touched many lives as a minister for the Disciples of Christ Church and later as a recruiter, though his occupations never defined him. He lived in Farmersburg, IN, and was passionate about English literature, birding, hiaku, and his daily three-mile hikes. He was also an amazing story teller. Steve was the son of the late Dr. Kenneth and Ruth Isaacson Kuntz of Indianapolis.

A memorial gathering will be from 11:00 a.m. until 12 noon Tuesday, September 4, 2018, at Flanner Buchanan – Carmel, 325 East Carmel Drive. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that expressions of empathy be made in honor of Steve to the Indiana Audubon Society.

Survivors include his daughters Mary Robb Hickey of Vincennes, IN, and Katherine Dill of Carmel, IN; grandchildren Braydon Robb, Bailey Robb, Brynna Robb, Zoe Dill, and Paige Dill; his sister Joan Barnett of Canton, MI; nephew Mike Palmer; niece Shannon Paulsen; and two great nephews Nathan Palmer and James Paulsen.
