Ernest was born on May 7, 1956, in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, to the late George W. and Martha Cunningham Kuhn.
Ernest was a hard worker throughout his life. He was always willing to lend a hand to people in need. He was a proud veteran of the US Navy and a graduate of Hopewell High School. He was often referred to as a gentle giant. He lived with the motto "life is for the living"
In addition to his parents, his brother, George R. Kuhn, preceded him in death.
Survivors include his sisters, Tracey Gilmore of Conway, PA, and Mary Ann Lindner of Deltona, FL; his brother, Eddy (Judy) Kuhn of Ft. Myers, FL; and several nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews who he loved and adored as if they were his own.
His arrangements are in the care of the Arner Funeral Chapel in Chester, where his wishes that no services be held are being recognized.

I have known Genie since the first grade. Along with the Mayhue boys and Billy Enders, we all lived only doors from each other. We were fortunate enough to live at a time when we spend most of our free time together.
Along with the Mayhue´s, we were all on the same little baseball team. As we aged, we kept our participation going, Gene and Mark wrestled, I ran track and cross country, Gene played football. We rode " the jock bus" home together following our daily practices.
Gene was very popular, smiled and joked constantly. He was a true friend and fun to be around.
Gene´s death has left me incredibly sad. I can´t yet accept his absence from us. I am grateful to have known Gene well and pleased he considered me a friend. Gene´s spiritual beliefs have given him a heavenly home and a new spiritual body. I´ll miss you Gene, but await the day when our relationship will continue, in a time and place of great joy, happiness and peace.
Pax, old friend

So sorry to hear of Gene´s passing. School years we spent a lot of time together and random visits thru out the years always brought laughter and memories. Sincere condolences to the family and friends, just a great guy who will be missed.
