Mrs. Kim was my step team sponsor/coach while I was in high school. She had a beautiful spirit and a bright personality. She was one of the few "cool" adults to be around in high school. We've stayed in touch briefly throughout the years, and it definitely saddens me to hear of her leaving this world. You fought a good fight Mrs. Kim...Rest now. My thoughts and prayers are with the Phillips Family.
