Kim is filled with the love and indignation of the Lord. She is a woman of courage and strength. Her last words to me through Ken, "Do what you have to do, take a deep breath, and do it" is also relevant to all her family and friends.

She is still with us in heaven, her love continues through us, who have been welcomed into her heart and home.
