Donald Eugene Kemper

Donald Eugene Kemper passed away peacefully on March 14, 2026, surrounded by his family. Born on October 21, 1930, Don lived a full and purposeful life marked by quiet strength and deep commitment to others.

He served fearlessly in the United States Navy during the Korean War and remained a steadfast patriot who always placed his community and country before himself. Recognized as Ossipee Citizen of the Year, Don became a beloved pillar of his town. He volunteered as a physical education instructor, where generations of students knew and respected him as Mr. K. Whether in the classroom or sharing conversation and coffee while reading the newspaper with friends at the Ossipee Concerned Citizens, Don touched many lives through his warmth and steady presence.

Above all, he was a devoted and phenomenal father whose absence will be deeply felt by all who knew and loved him.
