Kimberly Manfredi Memoriam

Kimberly Manfredi August 3, 1971 - April 27, 2006 Two years have passed today since you left us that April morning. Those of us who loved you were left without a reason or an understanding of why. The years ahead will be difficult without you. You did leave us with many good memories and a host of family and friends who miss you like crazy. All of us hope you have found your peace in the next life. The family would like to thank everyone who called over the last 2 years with heartfelt condolences and shared memories. It's great to know that Kim was loved and will be missed. Her Legacy Guest Book will remain online permanently to share your thoughts and memories. We thank all of you, from our family, for loving her as we did. Kim is interred at Our Lady Queen of Heaven Cemetery, N. Lauderdale.

It's been 16 years, you have 4 nieces who ask about you constantly. They have your pictures, yearbooks & home movies but wonder what it would be like to have known their only aunt? I only hope that wherever you are it's what you wanted by leaving this life early. So I ask you to be at their side, to watch over them, keep them from harm, and guide them in the years to come.

13 years flew by like a gust of wind. Your 4 nieces are getting big & going through your stuff. I gave them access to your High school cheerleader items, pictures, awards, jackets etc and they are more inquisitive now about who you were. Too bad you never got to know them.

Miss you friend. My world is filled with your memories. Everyday something triggers a thought of you, a song, a place, a movie (Were you or were you not motioning to Clair? Lol) a restaurant, a food, a drink... so many memories. You are forever a part of me. My best friend for so many years, yet not enough. I wish you peace.

Dear Manfredi Family,
I just heard the news and wanted to share my sincere condolences. I'm so sad to hear my buddy Kim is gone. We went to elementary school together and shared many fond memories but lost touch over the years. This news encouraged me to go through some old pictures. Here is one of Kim the way I remember her. You are missed. Peace, Kim. Peace.

Leigh Gage

April 28, 2012

Luv you!!!

April 2012, it's been six years since you decided to leave on the 27th and it seems like yesterday. So much has happened and so much you have missed. Your friends are missing you and your nieces ask about you often, they want to know who you were and if you're coming back. As their aunt and their father's sister they have a million questions. Your new niece Kaitlyn looks just like your brother as a baby. So much to catch up on and so much you would have loved. Hope you found your happiness wherever you are little girl. 40 wouldn't have been so bad but like you always said "Forever Young."

Love Dad

Kim, You and I started on different paths about eight years ago but not a day, birthday or holiday has gone by that I have not thought of you. I have been looking for you on Facebook almost daily when I finally thought to google you and found this heartbreaking and shocking information. My heart is forever broken. I am so sorry I wasn't there for you.  My other half, my best friend for over 15 years. You are forever a part of me. Our friendship helped shape me into who I am today. The loyalty and love you showed me for so many years will never be forgotten. You were a gift.  I miss you Kim and I love you.
Ken and Kathy I'm so deeply sorry.
