    To the Cambest family, Just today I saw your dad's obituary. I'm so sorry and sad to see this. Not sure if you remember me Andrea Monks now Rauch. My dad was Rudy Ferencz Monks and my mom is Marie Monks. My sibs are Gerry, Danny and Michele. We would come over to you house with our parents Rudy and Marie Monks. The last time we saw you all was when we were at your home. Anyway, it would be great if one of you would catch me up on your families. We are all living in Kansas. My dad passed in 1999. Our mom is living with Gerry and his wife, Marie. My email is andrearauch23@gmail.com . It would be great to hear from you. Again, I send our family's love, prayers and support. Andrea

    We were neighbors of Pat for 18 years. Our children have fond memories of the play time they spent in the field next to their home. I could always count on Pat anytime I needed help. We wish to express our condolences to the Cambest Family and assure them he will remain in our prayers.
