As a co-worker of Kuzma I would like to express my condolences to the entire Zibilich family on the passing of Mr. Matthew Zibilich. From speaking to Kuzma I know how important family was to him. This is certainly an indication of being raised in a good family by a great father and mother. May your family provide you strength in your time of loss.
