Jim and family, Greg, Kris and your families,and all relatives,
Our family in Alpharetta, Ga. was stunned and saddened with the news and we want to express our heartfelt sympathy and compassion to you all. Although geography and years separate us all, first cousins have many warm and loving memories in our hearts and minds. We send our love, and may God bless you all and heal your pain as only He can.

My deepest sympathy I send to you. I grew up with Kim, and everytime I think of her, I smile. She left a lasting impression on me. A life that was so loved and cut so short is tragic to us, as we long for their presence to remain with us. But she lives in a better eternal place and one day we will see her bright smile again. She will live on in all of those who knew her.

Dear Jim,
Tim and I want you to know that we are praying for you all. Kim was very special to me and was a great educational therapist-it was a pleasure to teach her and to watch her with her students. May you know His grace and be constantly aware of His presence.
Trish Weis, NILD

Dear Jim,

We also have a deep and abiding faith in Christ Jesus, as I know you do. If you ever just want to talk, please know that we're here for you and would welcome the opportunity to just listen. Lucy and Steve are close friends of ours and know how to reach us.
In His love,

Mr. Cooper and children, I worked at MG for five years in Kindergarten but never had the pleasure of having any of your children in our class. I have heard so much about Kim. I met her for the first time during the workdays before school began this year. I was saddened to hear of your loss. It is only if you have walked this road can someone truly understand. Time will be your healer and your Lord and Savior will be your strength and comfort. We can never be separated from those we love because God leaves us with memories to hold on to and love that doesn't ever pass away. Praying God's peace, comfort, and strength to you over the days, weeks, and months ahead.

Dear Cooper family,
My prayers are with all of you as you mourn the loss of Kim. Kim was one of the first people I met when I moved to Wilmington, and I was immediately struck by her special presence. My son Matt was a schoolmate of Will's at MGCS in the early grades. Kim was one of the loveliest people, inside and out, that I have ever met. She will be lovingly remembered by many, many people. We were all blessed to have known her.
God will walk with all of you through this season.

Dear Jim and Boys,
Our family is so deeply saddened by the news of Kim's passing. May our Lord be your strength and comfort. She will be remembered as a beautiful woman of God.

Jim and Sons,

I was struck with great sadness over the passing of Kim, and still find it hard to believe that she is no longer with us. I remember fondly her gentle and caring spirit; often putting others before herself. Though we mourn with you during this time, we also rejoice that Kim knew and was known by our Lord Jesus Christ. May you find strength and hope as you persevere in Him.

Dear Jim and Family,

Our prayers are with you all. I was Kim's co-leader for a couple of years in BSF. She is such a wonderful person. I can not find words to express how much I liked her. I will greatly miss her. The world has lost a truely remarkable person.

Jim and Boys. So terribly sorry to hear of your loss. There are no words to express the emptiness I feel for you. Jim, you know the road I have traveled. When things settle down, call me.

Jim and sons, We send our love to you and our prayers to our Heavenly Father for you. Kim will always be such a bright personality and loving memory to us, from our days in Wilmington.

Yet our hope is in the Lord, whose comfort is matchless, whose peace is immeasurable, in whose presence Kim is experiencing the glory of the One and Only and awaits those of us who are His.

Dear Jim,
I probably go back further than you can remember. My name is Bob McKeithan, and I lived next door to you on 4th St. I live in Raleigh now, and since I have no immediate family left in Wilmington, I Read the notices in Star News on line. I was deeply saddened to learn about your wife's passing. How my heart aches for your loss. I remember how strong your faith was years ago, Jim, so I scarcely need to remind you to lean on our Saviour and he will carry you and your family. You are in my heart and prayers

Jim and Boys, Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this painful and difficult time. Treasure the memories of a beautiful wife and Mother. May Gods love and promises surround you and give you peace, strength and courage during the coming days.

Dear Coopers, Jesus knew we would face difficult days when He spoke Matt 5:4, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted." I mourn with you. Kim was always an inspiration to all of us who knew her. As I watched how she lived her life as a wife, mother, teacher, Scout mom, friend, fellow churchmember and community leader I realized more and more as time passed that God had done a good work in her. I pray the peace of our Lord upon all of you guys. Remember that Jesus loves you all, and so do I. Blessings.
