ZEMP, Allan Celebrating the Life of Allan Leon Zemp With deep love and gratitude, we honor the life of Allan Leon Zemp, who passed away on November 20, 2025, at the age of 87. Born in Edmonton, Alberta, on May 21, 1938, Allan lived a life defined by hard work, devotion, and unwavering love for his family. On June 19, 1957, he married his Beloved sweetheart, Thora Broadbent, beginning a partnership filled with laughter, resilience, and adventure. Together, they raised five children, Ricky, Terry, Teresa, Deborah, and Troy, creating a home filled with warmth, joy, and enduring love. Allan was a man of quiet strength and boundless generosity. As founder of ABC Window Cleaners, he poured his heart into his work, taking pride in even the smallest tasks and brightening lives, both through his craft and his example. He cherished moments with family, from summers at Mara Lake to traditions that will live on through generations. After retiring, Allan and Thora moved to Cardston, where they spent cherished years surrounded by loved ones. Though Thora’s passing left a deep ache, Allan’s strength and gentle spirit endured.
He leaves behind five children, 24 grandchildren, and 34 great-grandchildren. Allan’s love, example, and legacy will remain with us forever. Dad, we will miss you every day. We love you.
