Not sure what to say?

I am so sad to hear of kim s passing.My thoughts and prayers are with her family .

Wow, that was all I kept saying when I heard the news... Wow. I couldn't believe it. So many years since high school, but the memories are as fresh as yesterdays. One cannot think of Kim without a smile. I dare ya... try it. All I can say is that girl would crack me up. Loved to laugh and make others laugh. As everyone here knows, the amount of laughter she shared was was only out weighed by her depth of compassion. I will forever remember that curly haired girl with the bright eyes...

I've thought of Kim so many times over the years and hoped to find her on facebook or the like. I'm so very sad to hear of her passing. Her laughter was simply contagious. I knew Kim for many years, from elementary school through high school. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Thinking I would look my old friend Kim up on FB. Unfortunately I found an obituary instead. I am forever grateful for knowing and working with her. She was a wonderful kind person.

To the Biggs-Keil families,

I am so sorry for your loss. Kim will be surely missed.
I remember her from New Castle Middle and William Penn H. S.. Kim was always great to have around always laughing and fool of joy. I will keep all of you and Kim in my prayers.

I will never forget Kim's kindness to myself, Robert, and R.B. when we were guests in the Keil house for a week in 2002 preparing for our CBGB concerts in New York. She was a great lady indeed with a great sense of humor and she will live on in my fond memory.

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Seeing Madam Bigg's face on the news was an awful shock. I am happy that i had the chance to know and spend time with such a wonderful woman. Next year i will be taking french again in memory of our lost teacher. I'm so sorry for everyone's loss and i keep Madam Bigg's family in my prayers.

Madame Biggs taught me so much. I didn't just learn French from her, she taught me that many people have it worse than me, and to never be afraid to say what you think. I was about halfway done with exploratory French when the accident happened. That Tuesday during 5th period in French, we talked about Haiti and the poverty and need they have there. That same night, Madame Biggs passed away, and Haiti had it's biggest earthquake to date. I thought about this coincidence for a long time and...

I remember my mother was pregnant with my youngest brother, and Dave Biggs' mom and Billy Stidham's mom were pregnant and due about the same time. On May 4th,1964, my wife, Nan Stidham was born. I'm pretty sure it was May 10th, Kimberly Biggs was born, and finally on the 26th of May my brother, David, finally showed up.

I got to watch Kim grow up while her brother Dave and I were growing up nine years ahead of her. Often, Nan would be playing with Kim in the Biggs home at the same...
