Kevin Kampwerth was a treasured volunteer and past president of the Clinton County Fair board in Carlyle. Kevin was the first to poke fun at himself or tell you how lucky he was to be married to his wife of 41 years, LuAlice. His daughter, Whitney Kampwerth Luebbers, and son-in-law, John, were often seen with Kevin and LuAlice galloping the globe in their latest international adventure. Kevin was a lifelong resident and farmer in Carlyle and well known around the community. His volunteer work with the fair, Knights of Columbus, and serving on the county electric board aided as a catalyst in Kevin crossing paths with many people throughout his life. He never met a stranger and once Kevin met you, you can be sure he would say hi to you the very next time he met you. Kevin left us suddenly in a farming accident one Sunday morning. None of us were prepared for the vacancy unfulfilled. His light shines on.
