John,
We just returned home from vacation so were unaware of Kim's pasing. We are sadden by your loss but know that your faith in Christ and the wonderful memories you have of the time with Kim will help to sustain you.

I remember when we were all on Parish Council and you two were quietly dating and the rest of us thought you would make such a great couple....and we were right. I will never forget the day Kim told me she had just been diagnosed with brain cancer and how...

Occasionally people enter your life who have the ability to inspire and create joy. Kim was one of those people and I am grateful for the times I had, to be inspired by and joyous with, Kim. Her physical presence is gone, but her indomitable spirit remains. Thank you for the memories and reminders Kim. Your friend, Victoria

Amy, John and family ...
Our prayers are with all of you, as you hold your wonderful memories in your hearts. Kim was so energetic and so full, that we are certain she leaves a tremendous legacy even in too short a time, a legacy that every family member will keep alive in their own special way. It is rare to find a person who has touched so many people, animals, all God's creatures. May we all learn from her example. Take good care, always.
Justo and Chris

John and family,
Kim won a special place in our hearts. We can all take a lesson from her positive attitude, loving personality and that sunshine smile. We extend our deepest sympathy and pray that God will be with you during this time and days to come.
Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers

John, Lindsay, Greg, and Amy,
Kim is a very special person that I was fortunate to bond with when we were neighbors. We had wonderful conversations and missed her when you moved. I learned so much about gardening and cooking from her. You are in my prayers.

John and family, Amy and family,

You've been in our thoughts and prayers for the past nearly 2 years since Kim was diagnosed. Her strength and conviction during her trial was a great example to our family. She was indeed blessed with such a loving husband and family who stood by her and cared for her through it all. My life was personally blessed by Kim's friendship and her part in making my dream of being a "horse person" a reality. I'll cherish my Beaver Dam Farm memories of Kim...
