Obituary for Warren Kiesewetter

Warren A. Kiesewetter, 79, of Simsbury passed peacefully on Monday, September 20, 2021, at Saint Francis Hospital. Warren was born in Jersey City, NJ, on February 13, 1942. Warren was known by everyone as a jovial fellow in a baseball cap who always lit up the room with his bright smile. He was predeceased by his sister Joyce, and by Alice (Stanko) Kiesewetter, his beloved wife of almost fifty years. Warren and Alice made their home in Simsbury where they raised four children, Elizabeth, Michael, James, and Davin. They were blessed with seven grandchildren: Zackary and Mason Kiesewetter; Inga and Ethan Smith; Lindsay Kiesewetter; and Jacob and Evan Kiesewetter. “Pop,” as he was affectionately called, loved spending time with his grandchildren and watching them grow. Warren served in the Army Reserves for six years and was honorably discharged in 1970. In addition, he was employed for many years at Aetna in Hartford, where he not only worked his day job, but took great pride in being a supervisor on the move crew after hours. He always said that when he retired, he wanted to deliver flowers, and that is exactly what he did. He worked at Horan’s Flower Shop in Simsbury and enjoyed the camaraderie of the wonderful people with whom he worked. During these past five years without his wife, Warren kept very busy reading and spending time with his family. Warren will be dearly missed by his many friends and by his loving family.
