Ann Kemp Briscoe, 88
Our sister, mother, grandmother, cousin, neighbor, and friend
DIED: October 18, 2023
PLACE: Bountiful, Utah
BORN: February 26, 1935
PLACE: Logan, Utah
PARENTS: Harry and Ruby Kemp
By all accounts Ann was a cheerful, happy and creative little girl.
She joyfully recounted to her children experiences growing up. She learned to play the piano, loved skating on the family's homemade skating rink and enjoyed family outings up Logan Canyon.
Ann was an excellent student and enjoyed her many friendships with classmates. She was editor of "The Grizzly", the Logan High School newspaper. She received several awards for her academic achievements and was chosen to participate at Girls' State.
Ann met Ray Briscoe in a group of friends and acquaintances and, in 1954, they were sealed in the Idaho Falls Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Their first years as a married couple took place at Utah State University and Malmstrom Air Force Base in Great Falls, Montana, where Ann had a high-clearance position as a secretary to an officer.
Ann and Ray moved to Bountiful, Utah, with Ray's first job at Bountiful High School. They had four children, and Ann was active in book clubs, church callings and community causes. Her conscience informed a lifelong passion for politics and current events. She especially enjoyed teaching Cultural Refinement lessons in Relief Society.
When her children were older, Ann returned to her college studies at the University of Utah and, then, returned to work where she enjoyed the challenge and fulfillment of working as a medical transcriptionist. Beyond formal work and schooling, Ann's active orientation towards curiosity and constant learning drove her everyday rhythms and enriched the lives of many, most especially her descendants.
Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren love their grandmother for her ability to remember their favorite things and wrap gifts in special ways. She had a lifelong passion for nature in all its forms. Her love of beautiful flowers and plants is her lifelong signature, and she has shared this love with many, many others.
Left to cherish her memory are her four children: Joel (Christine) Briscoe, of Salt Lake City, Utah; Greg (Mary) Briscoe, of Orem, Utah; Heidi (Eric) Holmes, of Bountiful, and Jon (Kaylin) Briscoe, of Sycamore, Illinois; thirteen grandchildren, twelve great-grandchildren. Also surviving Ann are her brothers, Val (LuAnn) Kemp and John (Jean) Kemp, both of Logan, Utah and two sisters-in-law, Judi Kemp, of Highland, Utah and Lola Briscoe, of Providence, Utah. Ann was preceded in death by her husband, parents and brother, David Kemp.
