I’m sorry that I won’t be able to attend the funeral service for Kimberly. But my thoughts and prayers is with the Brooks and the Smith family. I really will miss my cousin.
So sorry to hear of Kim’s passing. She is at peace now and in no more pain. I will miss her coming in to pay her insurance, we had some good conversations. Prayers to her family and friends. My thoughts are with you.

This is Bill Arick. I had a professional relationship with Kim, her mother, father, and Zoranna and Zorozan(…?)–(I called him ‘Ralph’)… Kim was committed to, and loved her children unconditionally. She also had chosen full employment for her financial care of her family… in which she excelled until her decision to spend more time with her children. I hope Kim’s love remains felt by her children, and that her mother (with God) and father rest in the knowledge that their separate commitments to Kim and their grandchildren was a major part of Kim’s gratitude and eternal love of her children… May God’s love and care remain with Kim and her family throughout eternity… In Christian love… Bill
