Kim's family:

I am deeply saddened by Kim's passing. I worked in the Board office when Kim was Commissioner, and got to know her on both a professional and personal level. She always had a smile for you, and her loyalty to her convictions was to be admired. I had the opportunity to fish with Kim on two separate occasions -- she never caught a single fish and I had to release all of mine, and she didn't even throw me out of the boat. I will miss her.

I was both shocked and saddened to hear about her passing. As a Washington County employee she was always very supportive of childhood immunizations and particularly our mascot, Elliot the Elephant.
She will be greatly rememberd for her kindness, outgoing personality and caring attitude.

I'm speechless. Kim was such a vital, strong woman, full of life and fun, with a dynamite sense of humor. I'm so sorry to learn of her passing. I met her when she was just 19 years old. It's hard to believe she's gone. She was one of a kind and I know she will be missed.

I was fortunate enough to fish with Kim in her drift boat.
She was so fun loving and it was a blast to help her land a big steelhead that day.
Thanks Kimmie for the trip down the Wilson that day...you will be missed.

To Kim's Family and Friends:

Roy and I were shocked to hear of Kim's passing. We enjoyed her so much when she and Roy were County Commissioners together! She brought such a "light-heartedness" to what sometimes seemed as "cruel politics" and she genuinely cared for others. She and I had a lot of fun on some out of town trips we took while she was on the Board. I'm sure she will be missed by all that knew her! Our sincere condolences go out to you!


Roy &...

Kim was a great lady and did many things for her district. I suffered a trajic lost in 1997 and Kim was one of the first people to comfort me with condolences. I am truly sorry for her family.

Kim's family and friends,

My wife, Michele and I are stunned and saddened by Kim's passing. I was county administrator during Kim's terms and we enjoyed a great friendship. Her heart was so big and her efforts so tireless in fighting for the little guy. She was loved by the staff and all the people she helped.

Our sincere condolences,

Charlie and Michele Cameron
