Kim and I have been friends since the 3rd grade. I think her often. We had lots of good times together. I am the one who fixed her up with Mike, the love of her life. When we were little she was always at my house. One of the best times we had was in our 10th grade year. Sherry Laipply, Kim and I went to Tennessee on a greyhound bus. Gatlinburg, Tennessee was never the same after that trip. Kim was such a wonderful close loving friend.

and starting a small grease fire she fired me!!!!

Kim was a very compassionate, caring person.
My husband Bill and I were at a community garage sale a few months before he died back in 1997.
I had ran into Kim at one sale and She was asking me how I had been doing.I proceeded to tell her about my husband being sick from lung cancer and that he didnt have much time to live.She took time out of her day to listen to me and give me a hug. I have always remembered her for that kindness and the compassion she gave to me that day.
