Kathleen "Digger" Bemben

I´m so sad to hear of Digger´s passing. We met at the Advocate where she was a fixture.she befriended me immediately. Along with this friendship came a lot of parties and get togethers she seemed to be holding. She had a LOT of friends. And then she met Dave. What a most delightful couple they were. Digger had a lot of heartache, but she also had a lot of joy that she radiated back to those in her circle. I lost contact when I moved to Maryland, sad to say. Happy trails and open roads my...

I was blessed to know Digger for over 49 years. She was one of my first friends when I worked at the Valley Advocate and we always remained close buddies. She was the glue that bound together many fellow Advocados for life. She was generous, feisty, kind, and funny. She was my favorite traveling companion and we went to the New Orleans Jazz Festival three times, among so many adventures along the way. Like so many others who loved her, I will miss her forever.

Kathy was such a dear friend all through our school years. She was smart, fun with the most beautiful personality. I was blessed to have her as a friend. Rest in peace Kathy.

I´ve known Digger for over 40 years. She was a special woman with a lot of love for everybody around her. Love to give him parties so all her friends could get together. I will miss her till the day I die.
