KaMari Jaylan Gamble was born on July 16, 2006, in Columbus, Georgia, to his loving parents, Kenyata Copeland and Sheniquia Gamble. Kamari, affectionately known as KG to his family and friends, was a kind-hearted and talented individual. He had a deep love for drawing, often expressing his creativity through his art, and enjoyed playing the drums, bringing rhythm and joy to those around him. Despite his quiet and soft-spoken nature, KaMari carried a strong passion for hard work and determination. He dreamed of one day starting his own yard maintenance business, combining his entrepreneurial spirit with his dedication to excellence. As a senior at Central High School, Class of 2025, KaMari was on the cusp of a bright future, leaving a lasting impression on everyone who knew him with his gentle demeanor, artistic talents, and unwavering work ethic.
On Wednesday, December 4, 2024, KaMari was called home to be with the Lord. He is now at peace, reunited with his grandfathers, Scottie Giddens, and Hector Gamble, who preceded him in death.
