Dale Kemp

I am so sorry to hear about Dale. I went to U of M with him and lived with in Houston. I am shocked to hear he has passed. He was always a good friend, one with both a huge smile and heart. We will miss you brother.

Similar to others, I worked with Dale at Hewlett Packard where Dale was my first boss out of college. I have not talked to him since 2007 and despite having only worked with him for a few years, Dale had a lasting influence on me. His nuggets of wisdom and frequent quotes have stuck with me over the course of my career and I will forever be thankful for his leadership and guidance that helped shape my professional approach. I am saddened to hear of his passing.

We are remembering Dale today in honor of his birthday!! Thank you, Mona Harvey for your kind and true words about Dale. Everyone loved him!

I share this memory In honor of Dale's birthday today. We were in the Single Adult Ministry at Tallowood Baptist Church in 1992. My employment had been terminated after 10 years with an energy company. I was struggling with decisions about what to do, in particular whether I should put my house up for sale and move back home. In a casual conversation one Sunday, Dale realized I felt overwhelmed with sadness and failure. He was so kind to me at that time that I have never forgotten it. ...

I met Dale at Compaq in 1990 and we have been friends ever since. Although I met Dale as a coworker, he also quickly became my friend. His intellect, tenacity, sense of humor, and all the funny stories will always be remembered. We had many great discussions, but in the last year our discussions seemed to always turn to God and the blessings He has bestowed upon us. Dale was one of the most loving, generous, and caring men I have ever known. After Hurricane Harvey, Dale found a new...

Dale, my dear friend, oh how I will miss you. I will miss your messages from the Turks, rubbing in how much you were enjoying the view. I will miss hearing about your bargain finds after each holiday so that you could donate items to your favorite cause. I will miss our dinners at Taste of Texas (thank you for introducing me to this wonderful restaurant). I will miss trying to figure out what to do with all those rounds of ammunition and talking about your classic truck. I will miss...

I met Dale in the fall of 2003. Dale was my right hand man as I navigated the new world of Compaq as a long-term HP Finance Manager. I ran PSG Finance for three years with Dale as my trusted partner in improving our business, merging the two cultures, and above all - having fun! Dale and I shared great times at work, but more importantly we became good friends. I, too, know Dale's love of his place in the Turks and Caicos. My family and I stayed there twice over the years. I retired in...

I’ve only known Dale for the past few years but what a joy it has been! He was a generous soul with a kind heart who loved spending time with his friends. Mark and I were fortunate to be able to spend time with him at one of his favorite spots in the world, Turks & Caicos! Dale had a great sense of humor. I remember how excited he was when he accomplished one of his “retirement” goals.. growing his hair long enough to get it into a ponytail! He was so kind and supportive of me during...
