Dear Kemp Family, Today Judy called to inform me of Dr. Kemp's passing. I have had the pleasure and honor of serving Dr. Kemp for over 15 years.

I was sorry to hear about your dad's passing, although I know he hadn't been well in a long while. Sad to lose him so close to Christmas too. Having lost my sister Tanya in September, I especially understand your grief and loss. I have the nicest memories of you mom and dad both. God gives us memories so that we might have roses in December. Alan, when things settle down, and if you want, send me an e-mail and we'll catch up with each other.(after these 30+ years)

Dear Cousins Alan, Judy, Brian and Mae Kathryn. Jeddie called us this morning with the news of Uncle Jim's passing. I was my great pleasure to visit with Jim and Emily in 1999 for five days. They were very hospitable as always and we had a wonderful reunion and visit. J & E shared so much with me about my father, John Wilbur, and Jim's experiences with his parents, brothers, and our family. I will cherish that warm visit with them always. God Bless your families during this time. You're in our prayers. Sincerely, Your cousin John 'Scott' Kemp P.S. On the WHW online website, they have grandmother's name as Viola Blevins Kemp instead of Viola Mae Bivens Kemp.
