Kim and I worked together at Blythe for the past year. We had grown extremely close. I enjoyed every moment that I spent with her. This description of her fits perfectly. She sure did know how to light up a room and spread joy. Please know that your family and Kallie is in my thoughts, heart, and prayers.

Kim and I played clarinet and attended girl scouts together. We sold many boxes of cookies going door to door in our subdivision and later we practiced our music to try to get 1st chair in band. Although she and I lost touch over the years, I always knew about her successes through our mutual friends. My thoughts and payers go out to Kim’s family and know that she touched all of our lives deeply

Kim and I became very good friends while she lived in Garner. We went to church together and went through Confirmation together. She is responsible for making me go to a Christmas party where I met a man who is now my husband of 16 years. I remember once taking a bus to Southport to visit after she moved, and we went for her to take her driver's test for her license while I was there. She came to work in Raleigh for a while and rented a room from my mom. Although we haven't seen each other in quite a while we have kept up with CHristmas cards and letters. I am very sad that I could not be at her service. I will dearly miss my friend Kim and send every loving thought to her family. Nancy
