Cynthia Kemp Brown, 56, passed away on Sunday, August 20, 2017.
Cynthia was born on February 4, 1961 in Enid, Oklahoma to Jerry and Neletta Jaylene Kemp. She grew up in Arlington, Texas and attended Gunn Middle School. In 1975 her family moved to Wichita, Kansas where she graduated from Wichita North High School.
She had a great passion for her family, and especially loved spending time with her grandsons. Compassion was her defining characteristic, and strived to help loved ones at all times. As a self-described “Old Hippie,” she embodied the spirit of Peace and Love to all whom she encountered. A voracious reader, she instilled a love of reading in her children, and helped spread that love through her years of work at The Wichita Public Library.
In 2008 she moved back to Texas to take care of her mother, and then after her passing, stayed to care for her father.
Cynthia is survived by her sons: Nick Brown and wife Ruth Harries, and Jake Brown; daughter: Kylie Fogler and husband Colton Fogler; grandsons: Landenn Satchell and Cameron Fogler; father Jerry Kemp; brother: Dennis Kemp, and numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family.
She was preceded in death by her mother, and brother, Alan Kemp.
