<div itemprop="description">Margaret Ella 'Marnie' Kempling (nee Legate) 1920-2015 passed away peacefully September 20th at the age of 95 in Sidney, BC. <br />Marnie was born in London, Ontario in 1920 and married her beloved Edwin Kempling in 1946. She trained as a nurse and gave herself tirelessly to caring for her children and, with her husband, served the First Nations of Canada as a missionary. Later in life she served as a compassionate friend to inmates in Canada's prisons. <br /> As a devout and fearless woman of God, her life was committed to Christ. If there was one word to describe her, it would be &quot;Love&quot;. With joy, dedicated service and a playful heart, she touched the lives of all who were blessed by her presence. Marnie will be missed and long remembered. <br />She was predeceased by her husband Ed in 1988 and is survived by her 6 sons,12 grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren. <br />The family conveys their thanks to the staff of Sidney Care Home and Dr. Chris James. <br />Funeral service will be held at 2:00 p.m. Friday, September 25th at Saanich Baptist Church. <br />Donations in lieu of flowers to Christian Blind Mission, Stouffville, ON</div>
