Nancy Kempf Obituary
On June 10, 1961, in Shawnee, Kansas, she was united in marriage to her surviving husband Leonard "Lenny" Kempf.
She found joy in arts and crafts, holiday decorating and gardening, bringing beauty and creativity into everything she touched. She embraced life with energy, enjoying competitive sports as well as snow and water skiing. Quiet moments were often spent bird watching. Most importantly, family was always her greatest priority and deepest love.
Her life was one of joy, activity and love and her memory will forever remain a blessing to her family and friends.
In addition to her husband, Lenny, she is survived by her children, Bradley Kempf and Marlo Kempf. She was preceded in death by her brother, Thomas Rowe.
There are no services planned at this time. Entombment will be held at a later date at St. Patrick's Cemetery in Laurie.
Cremation arrangements are under the direction and care of the Kidwell-Garber Laurie/Sunrise Beach Chapel.
