Mr. Kerwin Lance ("Lance") Hampton

Mr. Kerwin Lance Hampton began his journey February 9, 1956. He was a magnificent person who was the oldest boy to Ann and Leroy Hampton. He was preceded in death by his father, Leroy Hampton and oldest sister, Cheryl Chalmers.

Lance united in matrimony on March 1, 1996 to Cynthia Clark. Their union produced one daughter, Donetta Harrold and three stepchildren, Avis, Nathaniel and Mario.

Lance was educated in the St. Louis public  schools  and attended Lexington Seven Day Adventist School and Beaumont High. Lance worked over 30 years at Barnes Jewish Hospital and retired in 2000.

Lance  was  a free spirit. He enjoyed  music, dancing and  sports. He loved to tell a joke or two  and  participate in a prank or two with others.  He  loved  to  laugh  and  smile from  his enjoyments of life. His FAMILY meant the world to him  and  he always wanted them to be happy and to know that he LOVED them, UNCONDITIONALLY.

Lance leaves to cherish his memory: His loving mother, Ann Hampton; three daughters: Tangie Ann, Kisha Joy and Donetta Harold; three step children, seven grandchildren, three sisters: Rhonda (William) Ming, Bridget "Neicy" Hampton and Natalie Joy (Cecil) Hampton; two brothers: Mark (Yolanda) Hampton and Dexter Scott Hampton.
