Kim will always be such a wonderful friend even in death. But as she told me, her last heartbeat here on earth would be immediately followed by her next one in Heaven. I will miss my precious friend, but I know as “promised” by God, that one day we shall all gather.
I have had the pleasure of meeting Kim when we went to York Assembly of God when our kids were little we became friends and then went to church together at Bethel Temple. Kim also there for me to pray. I will miss you my sweet friend until we meet again on those Heavenly shores. Love you Kim. Katie and Kyle I will be praying for you
I will certainly miss Kim, as a neighbor we both enjoyed working in our yard and gardens.
Kim has been my friend while working in MIH. Really admire her courage. She fought a hard battle but she faced it with great courage and her strong faith helped her face obstacles. Rest in peace my friend. God bless. Prayers to your family.
Knowing Kim’s unwavering belief in God, I know that while she fought a long hard battle, she never feared death. She knew she’d be with God and Steve again! Her amazing kindness helped her be an awesome nurse, and I will always remember her with a smile on her face.
Kim – my neighbor, and friend. I will miss her kindness, and gentle manner. I pray her family finds peace and strength knowing that she is with the Lord.
Kim was always a wonderful host to Steve’s homegroup meetings where fellowship and discussing the Way and Truth was a blessing. They were (and are) a special couple who now abound in God’s riches for He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.
