KIM LAUINGER Passed away Wednesday, July 9, 2008 My Tribute to you, Kim Well Kim, here we are after 39 years you gave us; you are finally free! You endured so very much pain and suffering to make a difference and to give all those who love you so much just a little more time to have you around us. I know we are selfish wanting you to stay with us longer, but you gave it your best shot and now it is your time. You did leave your mark, with all the unselfish time and effort you put into making everyone else's life just a tad better. I don't recall ever hearing you complain even when you had just finished counting and rolling thousands of dollars of pennies and could hardly keep your eyes open, or all the envelopes you stuffed, and all those baby food labels you counted, all for charity and all made a difference in this world to help someone else who is less fortunate than us. Your sense of humor and your laugh will stay with us forever. Yes, and how about the teasing you gave everyone when you would win scratch and win tickets or at the casino or ever those little bets you made with your Dad? The wings you were born with have matured now and we must let you go onto your just rewards. You were brought into this world for a reason and with the help of your Mom and Dad and family, you certainly outdid yourself. The other day, I thought, I sure wish you were my guardian angel, but guess what, I can almost feel it; I am sure once your welcoming party is over, there you will be getting everything and everyone in order, and you will be everyone's Guardian Angel and I would be willing to make you a wager on that! Kim, we will all miss you very much. Thanks for the memories, I will cherish them the rest of my life. Margie
