Kenneth Dinsmore Obituary

Kenneth Albert Dinsmore, 71, passed away at his home on November 22, 2023 from complications of cancer.

Born April 4, 1952 in Baltimore, Md. to Charlotte M. (Helfrich) Dinsmore and the late Clyde A. Dinsmore, both originally from Baltimore, Md. They moved to Frederick in 1953.

He is survived by two sisters Charlotte M. Demory of Boonsboro, Md. and Linda C. Dinsmore of Frederick, Md. and two brothers Donald C. Dinsmore of Bradenton, Fl. and Robert E. Dinsmore (Beth) of Frederick, Md., nephews Tedd Gardiner (Grace), Don Dinsmore Jr. (Ali) and Eric Demory, niece Laura Gardiner, great nephews Logan Dinsmore and Ned Gardiner and a great niece Elliott Gardiner.

Ken graduated from St. John's High School in 1970. He then went on to graduate from Mount St. Mary's University with a Bachelor's Degree in Business and Finance.

He had a long (31 years) successful career at S.A.I.C., retiring in 2007.

Ken was a kind hearted person with a good sense of humor who dearly loved his family. He will be missed immensely. Ken also enjoyed building model planes and train sets. You could often find him getting his exercise walking around Baker Park.

The family will receive friends from 6-8 PM on Thursday, November 30, at Stauffer Funeral Home, 1621 Opossumtown Pike, Frederick, MD.

A Funeral Mass will be held at 11:00 AM on Friday, December 1, at St. John's Catholic Church, 118 E 2nd St., Frederick, MD. Internment immediately following service at St. John's Cemetery, 216 E 4th St., Frederick, MD.
