On Monday, January 18, 2021, Kent William Kremer, 77, went to be with his Savior. 

Kent was born September 23, 1943 in Elsie, MI. Kent was a graduate of Ashley High School and a 40-year member of the Saginaw Gospel Hall. Kent spent much of his life enjoying the outdoors, gardening with his family, and appreciating the beauty of nature. He loved his career driving semi trucks, but also enjoyed his time spent at home woodworking, farming, hunting, and playing with his faithful dog, Lily. He appreciated music and enjoyed playing the saxophone, banjo, and harmonica. 

He was preceded in death by his parents, Marcus Robert Kremer and Julia Maxine Kremer of Bannister, MI.

He is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Joann (Andersen) Kremer. Together they raised six children: Kent Marcus Kremer, Bannister, MI; Scott Kremer (Olinda), Fairbanks, AK; Dr. Selena Kremer-Caldwell (Adam), Bowie, MD; Vanessa Lura (Tommy), Sandnes, Norway; Aaron Kremer, Saginaw, MI; Lynette Harrison (Timothy), Frostburg, MD. 

Left to cherish his memory are two brothers and one sister, Karl Kremer (Rolayne), Max Kremer (Donna), Joy Coon (Paul). He leaves his precious grandchildren, Stefania Tesema (Ebsa), Briana, Catalina, Ariana, and William Kremer; Zoey and Noah Lura; Trenton, Abigail, Weston, and Natalie Harrison; and great-grandson Roba Tesema.

Funeral services will not be held at this time. A future memorial service will be planned when Kent’s loved ones can be together safely. 

The family would like to thank the health care professionals at St. Mary’s Hospital in Saginaw, MI for their compassionate care and continued efforts to save lives from the ravages of COVID-19.
