Kistenmacher, Charles E., died May 1 at the age of 90. Born March 21, 1914, in Paris, Texas, he graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in civil engineering. While at the university, he was a member of the varsity golf team and Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Upon his marriage to Eugenia Crook of Paris, Texas, the couple moved to Honolulu, Hawaii, where he supervised construction of Scoffield Barracks at Pearl Harbor for Robert E. McKee General Contractor Inc.
The couple moved to El Paso after brief stays in Solvang, Calif., and Ogden, Utah. After more than 35 years of service, Charles retired from Robert E. McKee General Contractors Inc. as senior vice president and head of the home office.
Although an avid golfer for many years, upon retirement he devoted his time to becoming an accomplished artist. His pursuit of perfection resulted in many awards at local, regional and national art shows. A small sampling of his work is presently on display in the Heritage Gallery at the El Paso International Museum of Art.
He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Eugenia, and his family including daughter Karen Russell Roots and her husband, Dr. Logan Roots; son Eric Kistenmacher and his wife, Michelle; grandson Adam Frederick and wife, Janet; and other grandchildren, Trent Arnold, Heather Tomlin, Jessica Bevers and Tyler Smith. A memorial service was held at the McKee Chapel at the Church of St. Clements on May 8. Interment of his ashes to the garden at the church followed the service. The family would like to extend a special thanks to the staff at Desert Springs for their many acts of love and kindness. Contributions to a favorite charity would be appreciated.
