To the family. Although words cannot ease the sorrow of your loss. Please know that you’re in our prayers.

Big Condolences. May not be able to make it to the service due to work. Pastor Keith, please em me, I’d like to chat, and possibly come over for a visit sometime. Kim was a dear friend since high school. Such a great person, Kim definitely had that light within her soul while on earth. Feeling terrible that she left the physical world so early. Jeez. Wow, I still can’t believe it. Much prayers to y’all, and to friends of the family. Stay safe, Dave N, (Oak Ridge Class of ‘88)
