Kimberly Vargo

I'm sorry for your loss

I knew Kim when she attended the University of Dayton. For a short time, we were in the same circle of friends. It was always fun to hang out with Kim. One particular memory I have of Kim was her story/rant about how her parents would not buy her Goober Grape, instead, opting for the traditional separate jars of peanut butter and jelly. Kim hilariously told the story and I remember everyone dying with laughter. If you can imagine, she was really passionate about her Goober Grape. She had all...

You lived out loud. I loved this about you. Teaching down the hall from you was a pleasure.

We will miss Kim so much. We worked at Camp Verde Elementary School with Kim. Mark taught 4th grade with her for 7 years. He says, "At after-school meetings, Kim and I would often sit next to each other. We had to suppress our laughter during meetings, so we wouldn't disrupt the meetings. At early morning playground duty, before too many students had arrived, we'd sometimes be doubled-over, laughing at something." We will miss Kim's sense of humor, laughter and kindness. Gone too soon...

Kim you had the loudest and most infectious laugh. I will miss seeing your face around town and at aqua Zumba. Your love for animals was apparent in all the rescues you adopted. Miss and love you lots!

Praying for all of Kim's family. I will miss her laugh and sense of humor.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I taught across the hall from Kim for 3 years. Her fun fashion sense inspired me to become the proud owner of a couple pairs of palazzo pants. We shared a love of cats. I will remember her barefoot and smiling!
