About Us

In the spring of 2001 at the tender age of 82, Charlie, our Dad and Father-in-Law made the decision to have a left hip replacement surgery. Although still able to get around, drive, grocery shop, and spend time in his workshop, he found the pain from his hip excruciating. Dad hoped a new hip would give him more freedom; after all, that was what happened 14 years earlier when the right hip was replaced.

The surgery did not go well. It took three times in the operating room to get it right and many hours with his family at his bedside day and night, before we could take Dad home. All Dad wanted was to be back home, in comfortable surroundings, with Mom's cooking and a little help from his family to get back on his feet.

For four more years, we gave Dad his wish. He lived at home. He ate home cooked meals, slept in his bedroom, watched the deer wander through his front yard, and puttered in his workshop a little. We drove Dad to appointments and visits to his daughters' homes. We even managed to take him to Cripple Creek for a little fun at the slot machines. Dad thanked us over and over for helping him and begged us to please never send him away to another home. He simply wanted to live out his life in the home he and Mom bought in 1955.

It was a small sacrifice to help Dad live his final years at home. Dad's physician told us many times we were a very special family and Charlie was so fortunate to have us near him. We felt fortunate to be with our father and give back a little for all he had done for us.

During Dad's hospital stays, we watched in dismay at other's loneliness and discomfort. We listened to other families describe how difficult it was to take time off from work to comfort their family member in the hospital. Other patients would tell us once they left the hospital, they would be alone. A neighbor would be dropping in occasionally, but for the most part she would be on her own.

That sentiment touched us because we knew Dad would have someone with him most all the time. Mom would be at home to comfort him and we would be there daily to pick up the pieces. We all pitched in to help Dad, and as Mom began to tire, we took over her duties. Mom was great with Dad; after all, they were married over 65 years! But she needed help and that is where we came into the picture.

Through these first hand experiences, we have developed a business offering non-medical home care to others in need. We decided to build a business around an age group we truly respect and love. It is our vision to give others the opportunity to live at home; the place they love, just as we made it possible for our Dad, Charlie, to live out his final years.

“Our Dad & Father-in-law, Charlie.”

Beth Kempp, Founder and President
Beth Kempp is the youngest of four daughters, born to Charlie and Irene at St. Francis hospital in Colorado Springs. She came into the family quite a long time after the other girls. As told by Mom and Dad, they were in their 40s when God blessed them with a 4th daughter. The two oldest daughters were already married and had children. Beth's sister, Regina is the third daughter and also a co-founder in the business.

Growing up, Beth always felt distinctive being an aunt at birth and sharing her parents with nieces and nephews the same age, as they came to visit Grandma and Grandpa! In turn, she also felt very special that her parents were grandparents to her best little friends.

Beth graduated from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. She has worked part time for Regina since 1988. This opportunity allowed Beth to be a full-time mom, yet still maintain business acumen.

Sherm Kempp, Co-founder
In 1985, the United States Armed forces brought 2nd Lieutenant Sherm Kempp to Colorado Springs from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. He went through the ROTC program at Northern Michigan University, graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Economics and joined the United States Army. Within three months of living in Colorado Springs, Sherm and Beth met and two years later were married. Their children, Nick and Becca, came along within the next few years. Sherm worked his way up to the rank of Captain in the 3/29th Artillery, but had to make some very hard choices as news arrived that his career was being changed by the upper ranks.

Sherm separated from the United States Army as an honorably discharged veteran and began his career in banking. Since 1990, Sherm has worked for four banks, three located in the same place as they were acquired through mergers. He works full time in the Colorado Springs area at a vice president level position.

Regina Deich, Co-founder
As stated earlier, Regina is Beth's sister. While growing up, Beth referred to Regina as her "second mom" although in truth, there really isn't that much age difference. Regina has always been the family mentor, the one sought for business or financial advice.

Regina has owned and operated Regina Deich Accounting and Payroll since February 1986 in Colorado Springs. Regina was the first daughter to put herself through college attending the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs and become an entrepreneur in business. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (Accounting) and an MBA in Business Finance.

Active Community Members
Beth, Sherm, and Regina are active members in the Colorado Springs community. All attend church services at the Tri-Community Parish, belong to civic and volunteer organizations and spend a lot of time with extended family members. Beth and Regina attended local schools and colleges. Sherm has lived in Colorado for 20 years since arriving at Ft. Carson. This family truly understands their elders and has the desire to extend those personal experiences to other families.
