In Loving Memory of Thomas Francis Kuehnemund

July 11, 1943 – November 1, 2025

It is with deep love & sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Thomas Francis Kuehnemund, who went to be with the Lord on November 1, 2025, at the age of 82.

Born on July 11, 1943, in Bay City, Michigan, Thomas spent the first 40 years of his life in his beloved home state. It was there that he met and married the love of his life, Delores. Together they built a beautiful life and were blessed with two children before eventually making their home in Shreveport, LA.

Tom was a man who valued a strong work ethic and providing a blessed life for his family. He is survived by his two children, Chris Kuehnemund of Shreveport, LA, and Elizabeth Hughes (John) of Tyler, Texas, & his cherished grandchildren Olivia Fenton (Will), Benjamin Hughes, Hannah Hughes and Samuel Hughes, who will forever cherish his unwavering love, support and countless memories throughout the years.

He found great joy in life's simplest pleasures – tending to his flower garden & yard, gathering around a card table with friends & family, where laughter was always abundant, and enjoying classic movies that reminded him of days gone by. "Bumming" around town to scout out the local sales & grabbing a Whataburger milkshake while out & about were highlights of his retired General Motors days, but nothing brought him more happiness than visiting and spoiling his beloved grandchildren.

A faithful member of St. Norbert's Catholic Church in Munger, MI and St. Mary of the Pines Catholic Church in Shreveport, LA, Tom served his parish as an altar boy, a lay minister and a member of the Knights of Columbus. His lifelong faith in Jesus Christ brough comfort & meaning to his life well-lived.

He was proceeded in death by his loving wife of 54 years, Delores Scott Kuehnemund, as well as his parents, Helen & Harold Kuehnemund & all three siblings, Harold "Junior" Kuehnemund, Delores VanDenBoom & Rita Adamski.

As we mourn his passing, we find comfort in knowing he has entered eternal rest in the presence of His Savior, where his spirit is renewed, body is healed, and his joy made complete.

A private family service will be held in honor of his life. In lieu of flowers, the family invites friends and loved ones to plant something beautiful in his honor.
