My deepest condolences go out to you as you grieve the loss of such a wonderful person. Kim always had a smile, her kind heart will always be a memory I will cherish.
Kim and I graduated together in 1978, I met up with her at the Orthopedic X-ray room and it was like the years between never passed. She was a very special person and I cannot imagine the loss you feel. I pray your family will find peace.
