Robert A. Kincses, age 78, passed away peacefully at his home in Centerville, Ohio on Monday, January 26, 2026. Born on June 10,1947, in Dayton, Ohio, he was the son of the late Gabor R. and Susie A. (Jackson) Kincses of West Alexandria. Robert graduated from Twin Valley South High School in 1965 and went on to proudly serve in the United States Marine Corps from 1967 to1973. During the Vietnam War era, he served as a computer specialist, stationed in Kansas City, Missouri, and later in Okinawa.
After his military service, Robert returned home to Ohio and graduated from Sinclair College in Dayton. He began a long and respected career as a computer specialist at Wright Patterson Air Force Base, where his intelligence, dedication, and steady work ethic were deeply valued.
In his retirement years, Robert devoted himself to helping others, especially through volunteer work supporting U.S. military veterans in Ohio- a cause close to his heart and reflective of the life he lived: quietly loyal, generous, and full of purpose. He was a supporter of the Historical Society of Germantown, Ohio, Miami Valley Military History Museum, Save Ohio Parks, 2025 winner of the Philo Community Events Award for Dedication, and 4 Freedom Equestrian Team – Supporting Veterans and First Responders.
Robert is survived by his brother, Tom Kincses of West Alexandria, Ohio, his sister Susan Kunkemoeller (Steve) of Cincinnati, Ohio, nieces: Penelope S. Sullivan, Erin E. Hiestand and Holly J. Duffy, his great-niece and great-nephews.
Robert will be remembered for his kindness, his love of music, his deep appreciation for friends and family, and his infectious laughter that could brighten any room.
Services will be announced at a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Barnes Funeral Home – Eaton, Ohio. Condolences www.barnesfuneralhome.com.
