JOHN HENRY KEMP

May 5, 1939 - August 22, 2023


Peacefully at his home, John Kemp passed away on August 22, 2023. He had spent the previous evening doing what he loved - watching an NFL Preseason football game.

John was predeceased by his wife Naomi (Noni) Kemp; his parents, Gertrude and William (Wussell) Kemp, sister Heather Foreman, brother Bill Kemp and brother-in-law Gerry Hart. He is survived and will be sadly missed by daughter Judy and sons, John (Karen), Ryan (Lori), Jeff (Kristy) and sister Carol.

He leaves behind seven precious grandchildren to cherish his memory: Elizabeth, Alexander, Ethan, Ava, Jackson, Freya and Naomi (Noni). He will also be fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews, Barb (Charles), Bill and Brian Foreman, Linda (Nina) and Bill Kemp, Jordy (Stephanie) Hart, brother-in-law Ted (Lynne) Foreman and cousin Janice Kay.

Cremation has taken place and a private family celebration of his life is planned for late October.

Rest gently John, you will be so missed.

Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • I went to Gordon Bell with John. He was terrific in sports, had many, many friends, and was always thoughtful of others. So well-liked and in some of my darkest days was a friend stopping by to encourage me. I was able to talk to him later in life to let him know how much those words of encouragement meant to me at that time. Sending deepest condolences for your loss.

  • John John my Insurance Broker John! What a ride we had! We took it all in stride the good times and yes even the bad. There is no doubt in my mind that you, Papa and Frank are meeting for cocktails and of course it would be with Noni’s permission. Lory and I will miss you. Rest easy my friend!
