Charlie and Dylan – just a note to say that the last time I talked to Kim was a few months ago – she was so proud of you guys. You all were the only true consistant lights in her life. I wish for you all the peace and harmony that she wanted for you.
Bill, Amy – I haven’t talked to Kim in probably 15 years. Read this in the paper today and really made me feel sad. I am so sorry for your loss I also feel a loss. We were very good friends at one time in our life. Charlie and Dylan I haven’t seen you since you were very small but I know your mama loved you very much. My prayers are with you all.
To all of my family back in Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri – We love you and will miss not being with you in person to celebrate Kim’s life. I am glad you found the CD of me singing to play for her service. She loved that song and it brought comfort to her when thinking of her own mom. May God comfort all of you during this time of sorrow as you look to Him for strength. Kim was not only my cousin, but a friend and prayer partner as we talked a couple of times a month on the phone and prayed with and for each other. She will be missed.

Amy,Charlie, and Dylan.
I can’t begin to tell you how sad I am about Kim. It is unfortunate that we never really had the chance to know each other over the years. We were all denied the chance to be family. I feel so priviledged to have been able to spend some time with her in October, when she came to Colorado to visit. She was the kindest, gentlest souled person I believe I’ve ever met. I was just getting to know her again, and now the opportunity to become really close is gone. The three of you were the most important people of her life, and the only true topics of conversation we had.
She loved the three of you more than life itself. I regret all of the time we missed. But will forever be greatful for the time we did share. My prayers are with you all, and I hope I will get the opportunity to meet you, too, at some point in life.
Amy, Charlie & Dylan, please know that my love, prayers and condolences are with you during this very sad time. It is so hard to believe Kim is no longer here, and how young she was to have left this earth. Please know that she loved all of you so very much, and couldn’t stop talking about you everytime we talked. She was proud of you sons, and felt such love and pride for you both. For the short time I was getting to know Kim she truly was a beautiful woman inside and out, and so sweet and caring of others even when she wasn’t feeling good herself.
Again, sending love and prayers and may her memories bring you some comfort in the days, weeks, and years to come. May God Bless You and Keep You in His Love.
Charlie, Dylan & Amy:

Thank you so very much for all that have left messages for the family on here. It truly means a lot to us all to hear from you. Kim touched so many lives over the years, more than she knew. And through her passing we have come to know many of those people. It comforts us to hear the stories of her gentle heart. May God comfort all of us during this difficult time. I am blessed to have been graced by the best sister in the world. (I miss you Sissy.) Lovingly- Amy
