Dear Kim and Family,
I was at your service today. It was a beautiful service. Just as I remember you with your sincere beautiful smile and always your sincere kind words. You were always the same each and every time we would see you.
I left your service today feeling closer to our Shepard, feeling his love, peace and comfort in all areas of life and knowing that you are in the arms of our Dear Lord.
I will continue to pray for your family and your God sent dearest friend, Jeanell. She and your sister gave the most beautiful Eulogy.
We will all miss you very deeply. I know that we all have another special Angel looking down on all of us.
With Gods love,
Amy B Martin & Ronnie Carrithers

I was very saddened to hear of Kim's passing. Even though we knew eachother for a short while at Macy's I still remember her radiant smile and how it would light up the department! My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all her family and friends, especially her son Kyle which she spoke so lovingly of.

To Kim's family
I am so very sorry for your loss. Although it had been many, many years since I'd seen Kim (since our KHS years) I thought of her from time to time and smiled. She was in many of my classes beginning in Jr. High and up through high school. We talked and laughed so much! (Sometimes a little too much and we got into trouble!)
I know she will be missed by her friends and family. To Jeanell LaFata...I'm so sorry you lost your best buddy. You are all in my prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Joyce & Kyle, and all of their family at this difficult time.
We have some great memories of being on "The River" with Kim. Not only was she beautiful on the outside, but on the inside as well. Her smile could light up a cloudy room.
No more pain & suffering now for her,but such a good spirit taken way too soon.

Kim was a very special and sweet woman. I only knew her for a few years but it was always nice to encounter her. We had a lot of fun together. She will be sorely missed. May she rest in peace.

Kyle, my deepest sympathy to you. I am heartbroken over the passing of your beautiful mother, Kim. I have so many truly wonderful memories of the many times you, Kim, Gregory, Yeardley and I spent at Chuck E. Cheese, Busch Gardens, Water Country, Fort Fun, Blue Bird Gap Farm, the cottage, the beach house, the Mainers' Museum, the Living Museum... the list goes on. These times were among the very best of my life because they were spent with your Mom. Her energy, spirit, love and laughter were amazing. I consider her friendship and the times we shared one of the greatest gifts of my life.

My heart broke when I heard of Kim's Passing. I did not know her well and I did not know her for long. However, Kim was a strong fighter, an inspiring woman, and an honor to know. Steve, I am so sorry for your loss. God bless you and all of Kim's friends and family.

November 28, 2009

Kim, you will be missed so much by our family as you were part of it. Our family get-togethers will never be the same without you! You have been in our family for so many years and have especially meant so much to my sister Jeanell. You both have always been there for each other. Thank you for touching our lives. You're probably there with our Mom now. You are in a better and pain-free place resting in peace. I will always remember your smile and gentle conversations.
Love you,
Linda Jester

It is hard to believe our Beautiful Blonde Haired, Blue Eyed Kim has passed away.
She was so Full of Life and Happiness,
always wanting to be going and going.
You always wanted to be around her because of her Vibrant Personality and Smile.
She Loved her Son Kyle so much and I hope he will realize how much she Loved HIM.
Many Thanks to her Best Friend since childhood, Jeanell. She has been there at every minutes for Kim. Doing what best friends do for each other. That is anything that Jeanell could do for her Best friend Kim.
Also, along side her was Steve her friend. Doing and giving of himself to make Kim as comfortable as could be.
Kathy Heath was also a friend and co-worker. She was also there for Kim, doing many things that needed to be done. "Thanks For Good Friends".
We will miss HER, but No More Pain and Suffering for Kim. Our Lord is with Her
She is on an Extended Visit with OUR Savior Jesus Christ.
May God be with her family and Friends at this time.
May My Prayers and Love go with Kim.
