Paul E. Kemen

North College Hill – Paul E. Kemen, 73, born on March 15, 1947 and passed away on May 14, 2020. Survived by his Wife of 44 years Janis Kemen (nee Gilkerson), daughter Amanda (Adam) Williams and grandson Dylan Williams.

Preceded in death by his parents Paul George Kemen & Shirley Kemen Smith (nee Mueller).  Paul served in the Army as a Military Policeman stationed in Germany during the Vietnam War Era.  Paul worked as a draftsman when everything was done by hand and worked at The Wm. Powell Company and Allis Chalmers for many years.  He went back to school to learn computer drafting and worked for several smaller companies before giving up drafting to start his own handyman business. He knew how to repair or replace most anything around the house and was always looking for a project to do; especially if it involved working with his pride & joy Dylan.  He loved working in the yard and every Spring he would delight in picking out a variety of brightly colored flowers for his yard, that was his happy place, in his garden. Arrangements and services provided by Paul Young Funeral Home, Mt. Healthy.  Instead of flowers, please make a donation to your favorite charity or The Freestore Foodbank.  Due to current social confinements, funeral services will be private for the family. Interment at Crown Hill Memorial Park.
