Oh my goodness! Dwayne, I dont know if you will see this but you guys popped into my mind after so many years. I looked Kim up, hoping to find her on FB but it brought me here. I knew you both back in the early 90's. I was introduced to you by Mike Dray, whom you worked with. I was girl friend at the time. I formed a friendship with Kim and went to church with you both a few times. I am so sad to see that Kim passed, but rejoicing I will see her again! I hope you do see this and know that I believe God used the 2 of you to help bring me back to walking with Him!!
God bless you!!
