Merle was born May 13, 1946 in Monticello, IA, the son of Kermit and Frances (Buckner) Kuhns. He was a graduate of Monticello High School and the Cedar Rapids Barber College. On September 20, 1969, Merle married Kristen “Kris” Colburn. Merle was an inspector for the Iowa Department of Transportation for many years. Merle was a longtime member of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, where he served as choir director from 1985 to 2012. Merle was a gifted musician and trumpet player. He often played trumpet at Prince of Peace Lutheran Church services, especially at Easter, and throughout the years played in many area ballroom dance bands. He was honored to play taps at funerals of veterans. He felt that playing taps was the most respectful way to honor those who have served our country. He enjoyed time spent riding his Honda motorcycle and driving for area car dealerships. Merle was a people person who loved to chat, and had a great sense of humor. Merle is survived by his wife, Kris, and their two children, Michele (Michael) DeMoss and Toby Kuhns; four grandchildren, Zach, Quentin, Aiden, and Austin; and his brother, Glenn.
