To Phillippa, and Kim's family, I met Kim and Phillippa in the early 70's at church when they were deciding on what college to go to, I had gone to Nyack. I met Kim at M&M Music after being away for many years and we reminicsed about those early times together in Malaga and at church. It was an honor and joy to know Kim. She had a mind of steel and remember me immediately. It was a heartfelt and joyful reunion. My heartfelt prayers go out to you Phillippa, and to Kims extended family during this sad time. God is always with you...
With Sincerity,

To the Filtcraft family, May the Lord give you comfort in your time of sorrow and loss. Praise God for the hope we have in Jesus Christ. Kim loved to sing and she had a lovely voice. I'm sure she is enjoying singing with the saints and angels around the throne of God. Sincerely Sam Bacon & family
