Our deepest and sincerest sympathies to Kim's family. My wife and I knew Kim from EM Smiths, and she helped to pick out a diamond and design Debbie's engagement ring. Kim was always so friendly and considerate. She was always the first person we asked for when we shopped at EM Smiths. Her smiling face and congeniality will be missed so much. She always made you feel welcome and took good care of her customers. May God comfort and lift her family up at this difficult time.

To the entire family, I am deeply sorry for your loss. I only knew Kim as a child. Our parents were one time friends. I lost my sister too young earlier this year, and am so sorry that your family has to deal with this pain. To Phyllis, I live in Laurelville as well, if you ever want to talk.

You were taken way to soon Kim. I had not spoken to you in a few years, but that does not change the fact I looked at you like a little sister. Phillys, I'm not far away if you need anything.

I am in shock over the loss of Kim. What a beautiful young woman, inside and out. She was my student and we were so close when she was in HS. We spent many hours in the art room doing art and talking. I hadn't seen her in a while, but she was the type of person who, even if we hadn't seen each other in years, we would give each other a big hug when we did. I will miss her beautiful smile.
