All of us at Thayer | Hidden Creek are deeply saddened by the death of Jack Kemp, who lost his battle with cancer on Saturday, May 2. Jack was on the Board of Advisors of Thayer | Hidden Creek and Thayer Capital Partners since 1993. He was involved in several of our portfolio companies offering advice, guidance and industry insight. Jack was a trusted friend, a great leader, a passionate man, and always a pleasure to be around. He will be sorely missed by everyone in our Firm. Our deepest sympathy goes out to Jack’s wife, Joanne, and his entire family.
