Kim, you are still very much missed and I think of you often, and how much fun we had together as friends. You had such a great spirit and were afraid of nothing. You boosted me up as a person every time I saw you. That baby you held at my house (my son) is now 35 and a father himself! I wish we could talk again. Hope to meet up with you one day in Heaven.

I recently decided to look Kim up when I came back to Media to visit my brother. Kim and I last spoke the early part of 2015. Together, we both went to Media Elementary, Springton Lake and then Penncrest. She used to call me "Coconut" and we would always laugh and kid with each other at school. Although I moved far away, I would always think of her as a very good friend and so, I was completely devastated to find out she passed. My condolences to Kim's love ones.

I only knew Kim for a few years. I befriended her where she got her hair done and we became immediate friends.
Evan though she didn't know me well she took me as I was, trusted me to share in her life, a complete stranger, and was their for me as a woman and a friend in an instance I shall never forget.
Her charisma and confidence as an empowered woman was contagious and I will always remember her, and smile.
I feel we will see our loved ones again.
Not too soon, I hope.
One never knows but I see her somewhere in another country home, with country settings on the table, apples and plants bordering a wall perfect for view in her own little spot in heaven.
God Bless you Kim.

A Beautiful Best Friendship that started with two words in Penncrest High School's bathroom, "Nice Leather". We had the exact same leather jackets. Kim was a Senior and I was a fearless 10th grader. Those words led to the closest friendship ever. I Will Forever Love You, Kim. Even though I flew away, You Will Forever Be With In My Heart. Oh The Memories. Thank You For All Of Them. God Bless All The Hess's and Biddle's. My apologies and My Blessings!! Love You Forever.

My condolences to Kim's family and friends. It has been quite some time since I spoke with Kim but at one time we were very close and she helped me through some rough times in my life. She was always so fun to hang out with. She was truly an original, they broke the mold when they made her! I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to have known her, even if for a relatively short time. God bless and see you on the other side Kim!

I attended TCA with Kim for a short time. We "became" friends through an agrument that had a wonderful outcome. I think I may still have notes she wrote to me from HS. Please accept my heartfelt sympathy.

Kim was a wonderful friend to me when I first met her 28 years ago. She was a beautiful person inside and out. I recently reconnected with her through Facebook, and it was as if no time at all had passed; we were close again. We had been messaging back and forth a lot. My heart goes out to her husband, her wonderful parents and the rest of her family. She looked like an angel on Earth, and now she is one in Heaven. Kim you were the greatest friend ever!!
