Thomas Walter Kinser

 

Rev. Thomas Walter "Tom" Kinser, 68, of Noblesville, passed away on Monday, July 13, 2020 at IU Health Saxony in Fishers.  He was born on February 27, 1952 to Pershing and Mildred (Martensen) Kinser in Kansas City, Missouri.

Tom grew up in Beech Grove and graduated from Franklin Central High School.  He received an undergraduate degree from Georgetown College in Georgetown, Kentucky, and a graduate degree from the Christian Theological Seminary.  Tom was a previous associate minister of First Christian Church of Noblesville and served as the Indiana coordinator for Operation Lifesaver which educates for railroad crossing safety.  After retiring, Tom worked as a substitute teacher for Noblesville Schools.  He enjoyed photography, traveling, cooking and baking.  Tom was a "tinkerer" who could fix about anything.  His #1 priority was his family; they were the center of his world and he loved them very much.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his brother, Paul Kinser; and his sister, Sherry Lang.

Frank Hibbard officiating.  Burial will be at Crownland Cemetery in Noblesville.
