T was just an awesome, fun person to be around. I served with her for 6 months in Ohio and enjoyed every minute. She was a great missionary and a great friend and she will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to her husband and family. May you find comfort and peace in your time of grief.

It was so good to see Kim at the family reunion! She was always happy and smiling and added so much fun to everything she was involved with. She brought Bryan into our family, what a wonderful addition he is and such a complement to her. I will miss her! My condolences to Bryan, the Turners and the Shaws.

I served in the Ohio Columbus mission and knew Kim there. I feel privileged to have known her. She was a great missionary who always had a smile and kind words to say to everyone. I know she'll be greatly missed!

How do you come to terms with the void left in your life at a time like this? By remembering the good times you shared with your cousin at a family reunion - whitewater rafting and having a water fight between the boats. And always the laughter! To Bryan, my condolences on your loss. To the Turner/Lind family, I love you all so much!

Kim Turner Shaw is one of my best friends. We spent hours together when we were neighbors in Draper. Kim made me laugh, cry and appreciate life. We moved away from each other and then have worked together for almost two years now. I will miss her laugh, her calling me on my crap and her ability to take over and get things done. I know she's happy and in a wonderful place hanging out with the several thousand people she did family history for. She is loved and missed here, but I am certain she is enjoying the beginning of her "new adventure". My deepest love and respect to her sweet and loving husband Bryan and Kim's parents and family.

Kim is a true friend to so many! I have sat in some ridiculously boring classes and meetings that were made incredibly fun with Kim around. She was always asking what she could do to help.

We will miss our Sunday game and dinner nights!

Bryan, our thoughts and prayers are with you!

Kim was a great person. She loved life and all that knew her loved her.
There will be a hole in many hearts with her passing, but we know that we will be with Kim again and that she is in a wonderful place.

She touched everyone she met with her bubbly personality.
My daughter still has postcards and a letter Kim sent her from her mission. we will miss her she will be forever in our hearts.
Our thoughts and prayers are with her family.

I can picture Kim going out of this life and into the next laughing. That is what Kim did best, make everyone happy. In our Laurel class years ago, that is what I remember best -- Kim laughing and making us all feel good! There was never a dull moment.
I will look forward to the time when we will meet again. Until then keep a smile on your face.

Kim was a wonderful co-worker of mine at NovaRad Corporation. She was very kind, reliable, professional, intelligent, and creative. She will be missed greatly and will never be fully replaced. My thoughts and prayers go out to her devoted husband, loyal friends, and loving family.

Kim was the wife of our son, Derek's, good friend, Bryan. We have known Bryan and his family for many years.

Kim had a delightful personality and it was evident that she brought much happiness into the life of her husband. Joy and Ken spoke highly of her to us.

She also supported Bryan in the things he loved to do and in his association with friends from his past. We saw her several times at family weddings, etc. and thought she was a lovely woman and that Bryan was a very lucky man to have found her.

Our hearts go out to him, his family, and her family. Her loss will be felt by many and we offer our condolences to all of them.
