Hemingway was on the radio in the Spokane market for 20 years and joined KEEH in 2017.
J.J. was known for his regular humorous or encouraging Facebook posts including Bible quotes. His last post was Friday June 14th. ” Friday Encouragement: “But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,” Philippians 3:20 Enjoy & Be Blessed”
Please keep the KEEH staff, family and friends in your thoughts & prayers.
