Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield, WI. Shew as born March 14, 1939 on the
beautiful Caribbean Island of Dominica. At age 13 she joined her father in St.

On December 14, 1959 she married William E. "Bill" Cammers from Riplinger (Clark
Co.), WI. He served as a missionary for Jehovah's Witnesses in the West Indies.

Clark County, Wisconsin to care for his ailing mother, who died in December of
that year. Kidsy and her three young boys joined him in January of 1969. The
family lived with Walt and Lucille Hohl in Greenwood, WI for six months, for
which Kidsy was very thankful, after which the Cammers family moved to Owen, WI.

active member of the Thorp Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses until her death.

as many as possible the Bible's message of an earthly paradise.
