Not sure what to say?

I walked into Animal Control one day when too many good animals had to be put down. Kim was almost crying. I left with an old irascible Dachshund that she just could not put down. Inchworm lived for years and I had mixed thoughts about Kim since I was not Inchworm's favorite person, my daughter was. Kim, I am so sorry.
You were a good person.

I knew Kimmie Puffy Westbay for over 15 years. I worked and played with her. Kim's knowledge of the world around her always amazed me. If I had a question, Kim had the answer. God knows when it is time to move on, but, I wish I could have told her how much she meant to me before she was taken. I will miss her humor, her compassion and her spirit. I will see you at the Rainbow Bridge, Kimmie. Always your friend, Auntie Dee

Kimmie was a childhood friend and neighbor of mine. We had lots of fun together, including 'mothering' kittens of stray cats that would always find their way to our homes. I also recall Kimmie's horse figurine collection and her dog Sadie. I was very saddened to learn of her passing, and wish comfort and peace to her family and friends.

Kimberlee was a customer of mine at Furry Tails pet store. In fact she was the one to deliver my first order when I opened the store 2 years ago. She would always have a story about her dog Jones, and made sure she got him a treat to bring home. I always enjoyed her smiling face and sweet personality. I would joke with her that she worked too hard, with that weathered straw hat in 100 degree heat she would never complain and said she was lucky to have a great job and meet all kinds of...

I was fortunate to work with Kim at animal control and most recently we reconnected when she delivered to my place of work. I am stunned and saddened and will truely miss her smile & wisdom. Thank you, Kim. You are missed.

I worked with Kimmie at Lake County Animal Control for many years and had the good fortune of calling her my friend for over 17 years. Although I was her supervisor for a few of those years, she was always my sounding board, my legal advisor and my constant “voice of reason” ! I am such a better person for having known and shared part of my life with her. To Kim’s family, I just want you to know that she had many, many friends who loved her; and I want to thank you for sharing just a small...

I worked with Kimmie when she worked for Animal Control, What a wonderful person. She was a person with great knowledge and wisdom. She taught me so much about life. She loved Animals of all kind. I will miss you Kimmie. What a great loss. Your friend, Tina

Kim was such an amazing person. She was one of my customers at the bank. It was nice seeing her when she came in every friday. We always talked about our football pool that we're in together. I will miss her very much! My heart goes out to her family~ Debbie G
