Artie Lynn Loveland
Artie L. Loveland, age 58, of Tipton, went home to rest in the arms of Jesus on Tuesday, June 9, 2020, after a long and courageously fought battle with heart disease and diabetes. Artie was born on May 23, 1962 to his parents, Jack & Beverly (Dennis) Loveland.
Artie graduated from Eastern High School in the class of ’81. He spent years working in retail. The job he is most remembered for would be his managerial position, held in the electronics department, at Kokomo Kmart.
Artie married the love of his life, Jami (Esarey) Loveland on December 14, 1991 and the two of them shared almost 30 years together. Artie adored his family, and took great pride in his roles of son, husband, and father. He took even greater pride in his relationship with Jesus Christ. Artie wasn’t perfect, however his relationship with the Lord was the most important relationship in his life, and he truly never hesitated to share the gospel. Even in his darkest times he was a humble man, obedient to the calling of leading others to his Savior.
You truly would be hard pressed to find someone more creative, artistic and talented than Artie Loveland. He was an extremely gifted singer and musician. Not only did he have the capability to be the person at the microphone making the music, he also had the skillset to build the sound system, arrange the audio and perfect the sound. It’s the same story with his painting and artwork. He could draw or paint anything from comic strips and superheroes, to beautiful landscape scenes. His artistic ability was truly amazing! Like seriously, he could give Bob Ross a run for his money!
Through the years you might have found Artie watching Pacers basketball, Packers football, enjoying his favorite coney dogs from Coney Island, playing with his cat Zion, watching drag racing or building model cars. More than anything else, Artie spent a great deal of his time reaching out to people. In fact, many in this world claimed Artie as their best friend. This is no doubt because he took the time to invest in them. There was a light in him that always shined brightly that others simply could not help but be drawn to. Artie will be so greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him!
Those left to carry on Artie’s legacy of love are his Wife, Jami Loveland; Sons, Joshua Loveland and Zachary Loveland; Mother, Beverly Loveland; and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
