I'm in deep shock. I had no idea she was sick. She was a nice person and i will miss her. We went 2 the same swimming pool and middle and high school. We hung out together sometimes at the pool. I know she's in a better place with god. And we all need 2 remember that we'll see her again in the lords house. Goodbye Kim i'll miss you.
