Charles Monroe Kinsey

Charles (Chod) M. Kinsey, 67, died Tuesday, April 21, 2015. Chod was a lifelong resident of Fort Wayne, born to Charles and Edna Kinsey on November 29, 1947. Chod was a gentle and compassionate man who loved to spend hours outdoors with his dog and time with or caring for his family. He served his country selflessly when he was called upon to do so as a young man. Chod was dedicated completely to those he cares for and would do anything he was able to do--and often did so--for those he loves.

He was preceded in death by Charles and Edna Kinsey and many dogs, including KKC (Kasey) Kinsey and Charlie Kinsey.

He will be missed dearly by his family: his sisters Kay Wilson and Karen Byers; his nephew Joshua Byers (Nicole); his nieces Kenlynn Wilson (Lee Jakobs), Kelli Radcliffe (Scott), Courtney Pittman (Matt), and Brooke Byers; his grandnephew Miles Radcliffe; and his beloved dog Gretzky Kinsey.
