Roger is predeceased by his parents William Kemp and Josette Gillis (nee Gagne), his grandparents Alidor Gagne and Claudia Gagne (nee Bilodeau), and Alice Kemp (nee Patterson), and his sister Linda Kemp.
Roger is survived by his siblings David Kemp (Tracey Wallace), Patricia Kemp, and James Kemp, as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Roger loved having fun and loud music. He was a lifelong fan of The Toronto Maple Leafs, and he never missed a game for 45 years! He worked for many years as a Heat Treater for printing, but what he loved most was the volunteer work he did at the Good Shepherd Mission. He had a big heart, and kids loved him for his goofy sense of humour and Oreo cookies. He will be missed by all who knew him.
