Charles Eugene ‘Charlie’ Kincaid

EAGLE RIVER, ALASKA - Charles Eugene “Charlie” Kincaid, 85, passed away May 6, 2013, in Eagle River, where he joined his daughter and son-in-law in 2012, after living in DeLand since 1947. A funeral service will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, May 11, at Lankford Funeral Home, 220 E. New York Ave. in DeLand.

Mr. Kincaid was born Oct. 24, 1927, in Petty Township, Ill., to Dorsey Newton Kincaid and Lydia Estelle Allen Kincaid.

Charles thoroughly enjoyed his 30-year career as a sales representative for Duval Spirits Inc. He possessed a very strong work ethic and formed long-term friendships with his co-workers.

He loved being able to travel, and to meet so many different people, and often said he felt extremely lucky that doing his job “rarely felt like work.”

Stationed in Korea 1950-52, Charles’ efforts in the U.S. Army provided fresh water to fellow soldiers.

Charlie was an avid golfer, who began caddying as a teenager in Ohio. He played golf nearly every weekend, had a powerful drive, and even scored a hole-in-one at DeLand Country Club. Golfing was a family affair for Charlie and his son, Charles Mark Kincaid, who has followed in his father’s footsteps as an outstanding golfer. Another passion of Charlie’s was his weekly poker game. Hanging on his wall were the cards from the night he had a royal flush, along with the signatures of the members of his longtime poker club Tony Buzzanca, Ray Doyle, Bob Heebner, Joe Ostermann, Mike Prelec and Warren Tiller.

For decades, Charlie dedicated himself to the taking care of others, delivering several days a week for Meals on Wheels. He also volunteered as an election poll worker, and loved to sell tickets at Daytona International Speedway.

Charles had an infectious laugh, and was a member of the Elks, the National Rifle Association, the Moose, and Veterans of Foreign Wars.

A passionate Republican, he enjoyed politics, history and geography. His musical tastes encompassed everything from country to big band.

He led an effort to establish Johnson Field and a men’s softball league in the late 1950s. Growing up in Cincinnati, he was a fan of the Reds and the Ohio State Buckeyes, as well as the Florida Gators.

Charles graduated from Madeira High School in Ohio in 1946.

He met Eleanor Graham at Stetson University, and they were married 1958-80. She remains in DeLand.

Charles is also survived by his son, Charles Mark Kincaid of DeLand; daughter and son-in-law Audrey and Joe Rubel of Eagle River; sister Doris Sporing of Loveland, Ohio; brother and sister-in-law Dorsey Allen Kincaid and Bernice Kincaid of Orlando; brother Virgil Kincaid of Sunrise; and granddaughter Kendall Kincaid of Atlantic Beach.
