Dear Kambeitz family, I am very saddened to hear of your loss and wish you strength at this difficult time. I appreciate what Mr. Kambeitz taught me about the law when I was his articling student. I also remember his treasured gift to my father on his 75th birthday and his kind words when my father passed away. His kindness touched many lives.

Our deepest condolences to the Kambeitz family. We have many great memories from years of practicing law with Bob in Calgary. He was a respected lawyer and a straightforward, old school character. We trust that where he is now , “a river runs through it”. Bill Gray and Pred Anic
