“We found out that Cambri’s illness has really run its course and she does not have much time left, so we decided to come together to welcome her back home,” family friend Kathey Wildig said.
She headed back home to spend her final days with family in Vicksburg, her and her family were warmly greeted by the crowd of people and bikers.
The crowd strolled the town honking, waving, holding signs and doing what they could to continue making Cambri smile.
