Edward Allyn Kunz, known to many simply as Ned, 51, of Winlock, Washington, passed away on April 23, 2026.
He was born on November 24, 1974, in Seattle, Washington, to John and Beverly Kunz. Ned was known for his kindness, humor, and strong work ethic.
He enjoyed fishing and long trips on his Harley, but he especially loved spending time with family and friends around a warm campfire with a cold drink in his hand.
Ned is survived by his sister, Angela Delaney; his brother, Jim Kunz (Julie Kunz); his nieces, Nicole Lauckhart (Steven Lauckhart) and Breanna Delaney; his nephew, Edmund Kunz; his great-nephew, Payton Lauckhart; and his great-niece, Aubree Delaney.
He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Beverly Kunz.
He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
