I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your husband Ray. I did not know him but I have felt the loss of a husband. Wrap yourself in the warmth of those 55 years together as you were so blessed to have them.

To Nora Lou and Family,
This author unknown poem helped me when we lost Gene.
I send it to you with love.........
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there. I did not die.

He was a good man, and very kind and generous to me personally. We share your sense of loss. God bless him, and rest in peace.

To the entire Kampe Family,
There are so many memories I will keep of Mr. Kampe. Just some of them include: His love & pride in his children & grand-children; coaching a wanna-be grade school basketball player; introducing me to the music of Neil Diamond; coercing a grade-schooler to dive - 3 times - off the high-dive by saying, “I missed it….can you do it again”; lessons in the art of concrete finishing; his story telling; “henways” & “hammerfors”. I am proud to have had him as my friend.
You all are in my prayers.

Nora Lou,
Ray was certainly a "swell guy". I will always remember his gift of gab and great sense of humor. Our prayers go out to you and your family.
