Dear Kamba Family,

We are so very sorry to hear of the passing of "Mrs." Kamba. I have very fond memories of growing up "kitty corner" behind this very kind woman who always had time for whatever silliness me, my sister, and brother were up to. You are all in our thoughts during this difficult time. Genevieve Hochwarter and family
