My sincere condolences to family and friends. I praise God for His sharing Ms. Corrie Kemp with me. She was an integral part of who I am today: a professional Social Worker with integrity and grace. She was truly a mentor. To God be the Glory for a life well lived!

My deepest condolences to the Corrie's family and love ones. We worked together for a number of years for our Bishops. Corrie was always kind and thorough in extending herself. We watched her through much suffering and knew that she was surely "GOD'S SERVANT". She leaves a legacy of love. Rest In Peace Corrie. (Rev. Joan D. Scott, Ecumenical and Interfaith Liaison, New York/Washington Region of the CME Church, Bishop James B. Walker, Presiding Prelate)

My deepest condolences to the family. I have lived right next door to Ms. Kemp for as long as I can remember. Her daughter was my "Best" friend. I find comfort in knowing that she is reunited with Phaedra and Baby-Bro, whom she missed dearly, and spoke of each time I saw her. I will miss her calling me "Grandma" and giving me parenting advice. Love and respect are eternal! Praise God.

I know Phaedra and Pierson will be happy to be reunited with their mom. Going to miss your bright smile and hearty laugh. You were always avaible to listen to me and my siblings as we were dealing with our mother and her health issues. We will miss your kind heart and listening ear. May you rest in peace.

Aunt Corrie, thank you for allowing me to be your adopted godchild. I will cherish our monthly talks we would have. Although I am sad, I am at peace that you have now joined your loved ones in heaven, especially your dear children whom you loved so much. I recall our last conversation in early July when I told you I had Tylar. You were so happy and stated you could not wait to meet her. Now, I can share with her great memories that you and I had. I will always love you!
Love,
Kimberley

My heart rejoices in knowing Corrie has now joined her beloved children, parents and brother but it is sad that I will no longer hear her melodius soprano voice, especially in her rendition of "Even Me." There are many fond memories I will cherish. Rest in paradise Corrie!

Love,
Vanessa Greene
