We were so sorry to hear of Kim’s passing. I have so many fond memories of our times together at WFUM. Whenever we came to Swartz, we asked for Kim and had a chance to reminisce over happy times. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mark and family.

I had the pleasure of working with Kim for 27 years in the legal realm. I admired her devotion to the many families she assisted over the years. She always did her very best and went the extra mile. Kim had a positive upbeat attitude regarding what life had in store for her. I enjoyed our many talks. She will truly be missed.
