Michael Kemak Obituary
A memorial service will be held at 10 a.m. Oct. 10, 2009, at Trinity Episcopal Church in Seneca Falls.
Remembrances may be made to Trinity Episcopal Church, 27 Fall St., Seneca Falls 13148.
Until moving to Gig Harbor three years ago, Michael had been a lifelong resident of Seneca Falls. He was an active lifetime member of Trinity Episcopal Church in Seneca Falls and retired from the U.S. Postal Service after 30 years as a faithful mail carrier there. Michael was a man of integrity and had the biggest heart to help everyone, including snow blowing every neighbor's driveway. He enjoyed gardening and was an avid fisherman, hunter and trapper.
Family members include his sons, Glenn (Dee) Kemak of Gig Harbor and Alan (Jackie) Kemak of Summerfield, Fla.; his daughters, Rebecca Kemak (Bob Cain) of Laveen, Ariz., and Kathleen (James) West of West Des Moines, Iowa; sisters, Ann Plis of California and Helen Thomason of Arizona; brother, John Kemak of Waterloo; six grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Louise, in April 2003; brothers, Andrew and Joseph; and sister, Mary Curcio.
