Rev. Arthur Kuehn
October 31, 1936 — January 22, 2016
Rev. Arthur H. Kuehn, 79, of Fayetteville, PA, died at the Colestock Center, Quincy Village, PA on Friday, January 22, 2016. He was born in 1936 in Cincinnati, OH the son of the late Dorothy and Harry Kuehn.
Rev. Kuehn graduated from Withrow High School, Wilmington College, and Colgate-Rochester Divinity School. He was listed in Who’s Who In High School, College, and Religion. He was ordained as an American Baptist minister in 1961, and served churches in Ohio, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Maine, and was the Senior Pastor at the Inter-Faith Chapel at Leisure World, Silver Spring, MD when he retired in 2001. Rev. Kuehn loved to travel, leading seven tours to Israel, Egypt, and Jordan. Rev. and Mrs. Kuehn spent one summer living in Israel, working on an archeological dig and studying at Tantur, a Catholic Retreat Center between Jerusalem and Bethlehem. He was an athlete his entire life and was very proud to have been a Senior Olympian. He was a member of Central Presbyterian Church in Chambersburg. He believed that God loves every human being — regardless of gender, race, or religion — and we, as Christians, are to spread the love of God as taught by Jesus Christ.

Kuehn is survived by his wife of 56 years, Gladys Kuehn whom he married on June 12, 1959; two daughters and sons-in-law, Cynthia and Donald Kindl of Frederick, MD and Krista Kuehn and Kendall Uzar of Bloomfield, CT; three grandchildren, Stephen and fiancée Michele, Stacey, and Scott Kindl.
