I can not believe this !
I just text Kim last week. Kim was so supportive of my new diagnosis of Breast cancer. I loved Kim so much, we worked side by side at the Hospice House. Kim was just a leader, teacher, and educator. My heart has a new void. Rest sweet Kim, Rest !
Family, I am so sorry !

My deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Kim. She loved and lived for her family. She was a wonderful loving and caring nurse, and was great to work with.
When\ever she would have a chit chat, she was always rub your back or a should and it was the most calming touch. I can only imagine how calm it made her patients feel.
She will be missed and always loved by many.
Rest easy Kim, and I'll see you again.
Love ,
Helen
