Dear Jo, even as an adult, I feel uncomfortable calling you anything but Mrs. Hemphill.
I am so sorry to read of your loss. I have so many fond memories of the years I spent with you and the boys - as your/their preferred care giver. You treated me like family and you have no idea, the influence you had on me and my developing tastes and attitudes. All for the better of course!
I loved those boys, each with their unique personalities and can only imagine how proud you are of them and now your grandchildren.
Take care.
Daveen

I was very sorry to hear of John's death. He was my dentist when I was a child and visits to his office were quite enjoyable, even though he was a dentist! I have many fond memories of my parents, Jack and Helen Smith , entertaining or being entertained with or by the Hemphill's.
My thoughts are with Jo and the family.

My deepest heartfelt condolences to Jo and the Hemphill family. Dr. Hemphill was both my dentist and family friend. He always had a warm smile, chuckles, and many questions about how and what I was up to. Then he would listen with intent to remember. One of my most cherished memories was skiing at Devil’s Glen. While riding the chairlift, you could always hear John laughing, singing and enjoying his run. My life has been blessed to have known John Hemphill. ❤️

I’m very sorry to hear of Dr. Hemphill’s passing. My sincere condolences to Jo, Doug, Ellen and all other family members. I remember John as a cheerful happy guy who seemed to light up with social engagement on any level. He always had such positive things to say to people. I know my Mom and Dad, Phyllis and Fred, enjoyed his company immensely. The spirit of that friendship still rests in Fred. He was very sad to hear of his passing.

Our deepest condolences to Jo and the Hemphill family. So many fond memories of our families growing up together as neighbors on Algonquin Dr for over 40 years. John's continuous smile and firm hand shake were examples of his memorable demeanor. It was always enjoyable to occasionally run into John at OBSC with his ski buddies on a Friday and take a few runs with him to catch up on old times. Thinking of you during this difficult time.
Steph Hauser & the entire Lobban family.

Our deepest condolences to Doug and the Hemphill family. Dad and Dr. Hemphill were friends at U of T. and Dr. Hemphill was our family dentist for all 9 of us for 20+ years (closer to 40 years for Jeff).
