1949 graduate of Rayen High School in Youngstown and a 1953 graduate of Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, with a degree in Political Science.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 54 years, William R Kinder and survived by her three sons, William, David, and Tupper (Lauren), brother Bert (Anita), sister Phoebe (Bob), and her five grandchildren.
Throughout her life she enjoyed knitting, playing bridge, travel, and gardening, volunteering at Selby Gardens for many years. But her passion was singing, beginning in college where she was a member of several chorus and orchestral groups, and throughout her life, most recently as an active participant in the Harmonaires singing group at The Glenridge on Palmer Ranch, where she was a longtime resident.
