Gloria Ann Kemplin

Until we meet again

Please don't be unhappy because I'm out of sight

Remember l am with you morning, noon and night.

The day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,

God picked me up and hugged me and said "Many welcome home to you".

And when it's time for you to go from your body to be free,

Think of where you are going - you are coming here to me.

Gloria Ann Kemplin was a loving daughter, sister, mother, aunt, and grandmother and will always be remembered as a loving, kind, creative person, with a green thumb. When she wasn’t working or taking care of her pets or all of her beautiful plants, she loved to craft and make things for others, crochet blankets, do bead work, and could pretty much make anything on her sewing machine that you could imagine. She would make us so many homemade dresses, outfits and costumes throughout the years. She also loved to travel with her daughter and grandchildren. Throughout the years, she went with us from everything from the west coast to Niagara Falls, and even making us wear these silly chocolate M&M shirts while sightseeing as we explored Germany, Belgium, and France together.

Anyone that knew her knew how much she loved animals of all kinds. We always had so many pets that she loved dearly. She had a love for wild animals too. She always referred to the antelope between Chino and Prescott her babies, from now on when you see them I hope you think of her always. She would always have feeders for the squirrels and birds outside; it brought her so much joy to see them around.

She was extremely loving, thoughtful and caring, to everyone and everything around her. She would always find a way to help others, even putting their needs before her own.

The world will be a lonelier place without her in it, but she would not want us to stay sad very long but to think of her in all those things that she loved.

Left behind to cherish her memory are her, children Jack Kemplin and Sara Hill; Step-sons, David Kemplin Jr, James Kemplin, Michael Kemplin, William Kemplin, John Kemplin; sisters, Dolores Armstrong and Kathy Stephens; twelve grandchildren, fifth-teen great-grandchildren, several nieces and nephews and her dog Tiny.

Gloria was preceded in death by: her loving husband, David Nelson Kemplin; her parents, Jack Wadworth and Isabel (Lopez) Jewett; step-daughter, Juanita Kemplin; sisters, Dona Reynolds and Irene Wadworth; and granddaughter Desiree Kemplin.

Neptune Society has been entrusted with cremation arrangements.
