Myron Max Hinz

July 7, 1931 — January 13, 2023

Myron Max Hinz, 91, of Emporia, Kansas entered into heaven on January 13, 2023, at his home surrounded by his family. Myron was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather, and he was a faithful member of the Lutheran Church from birth.


Myron was born on July 7, 1931 to Herman A. Hinz and Dorothy L. Hinz in Lu Verne, Iowa. Myron graduated from Lu Verne High School in 1949, and in 1950 he joined the United States Navy. After his time in the Navy, he returned to his hometown where he married Myrna P. Northrop on July 1, 1956. Together they raised four wonderful children: Terry L. Sigmund (Don) of Lenexa, Kansas, Rick J. Hinz (Bess) of Andover, Kansas, Michael P. Hinz (Christy) of Fort Myers, Florida, and Randy L. Hinz of Wichita, Kansas.


Myron and Myrna lived with their children in Lu Verne, Iowa until 1973, when they moved their family to Lebo, Kansas. Myron owned his own construction business, as well as working with King Construction. Myron and Myrna retired to Emporia, Kansas in 2002.

Myron always had a smile or laugh to share and never knew a stranger. He loved his family and he loved sports!


Myron was preceded in death by his parents, his brother (Jay), and his great-granddaughter (Tatum Grace). He is survived by his wife, his four-children, his sister (Ruth Ann Hinson of Burke, VA), six grandchildren - Kelly Hill (Jeff), Amanda Rowan (Jerry), Natasha Brokschmidt (Ryan), Brandon Fisher (Tanya), Kelsi Coble (Tanner), and Max Hinz - as well as 9 great-grandchildren.
