Sadly I found out about Kim's passing 11 years after it happened when trying to connect with old friends. We were confidants to each other, sharing secrets of the present and past. Even my kids knew her when they were young - we mentioned her recently when we talked about the feathered boa she gave my daughter. She will be missed through the ages.

Kim was an exceptional person with a great soul. She will be missed as a client and a friend. Kim always gave the best advice and helped me a lot getting through school. My dearest sympathies go out to her family.

My heart goes out to the Grossman family and to all that have been touched by Kim's kindness and love. Kim was my oldest and dearest friend. We went to Junior High School together and have been the best of friends ever since. I will miss her dearly, and can only take comfort in the fact that she is in a better place, with no pain, no illness, and at peace. She fought so hard for so long and with such grace, that she really does deserve to rest in peace. I just feel so selfish because I wish she was still here, to listen to me babble about life, when most peaple would get tired of hearing me talk. Her love and friendship will always be cherished

Although I only met Kim on one occasion through a mutual friend she has stayed in touch with her Jewish friends in Alabama for the last 18 years. She sent cards on all the holidays and once even sent 2 dozen bagels since real bagels are not around here. She read all my emails and always told me how lovely my family looked in all the photo's. She was a real gem and I will miss her. My love and prayers go out to all her friends and family.

Dear Grossman Family,

We were so saddened to hear of Kim's passing but know she is finally at peace. She was a true hero throughout her brave and arduous fight with this debilitating disease.
Fond memories go far back with the Lederman family and they will be truly cherished.
As for me, I had the pleasure of getting to know Kim through Lamberghini, her loving cat. She always had a smile on her face no matter what the circumstances were. Sunshine followed her wherever she went and will continue to shine on her forever.

Our loving prayers and deepest condolences,

Barry, Bruce, Nancy and Emma Lederman

Kim and I worked together during her stay at Bose. She was one of the most polite, caring, thoughtful and professional friends that I had the pleasure of meeting and was so blessed to have had this opportunity, on Kim's stop of the path on her journey of the time she shared with all of us. And she always ended her voicemail with, "and you have a wonderful day!" ................

Kim was a dear soul who deserves the best for her caring ways. Kim regularly sent me photos of Lambies her cat and I reciprocated with pictures of my Buddy. Each holiday I looked forward to receiving a card from Kim with little metallic confetti in cool shapes and decorations. Kim was a joy to have as my friend. Kim will be missed by all those she came in contact with. I am glad that she is now at peace but will truly miss her.

Dear Grossman Family,
Kim was so adored by me and my family. She was a special friend who was a source of comfort, compassion and encouragement during our difficult times and a beacon of inspiration with her display of courage and joie de vivre during her long battle with cancer. Please accept our deepest, heartfelt condolences and know that, although we are on the other side of the country, our thoughts and prayers are back there with you all. Kim will be sorely missed, but her memory and impact on our lives will stay with us forever!
