I still miss my friend. Will miss her always.  Never forgotten ~ always remembered.  She will be in my heart every day forever.  Love you "Miss Kimberly".

Extremely sad for the family/husband's loss. I worked with Kim who was a fantastic employee and always had a smile. Rest in peace, Kim +++

To her family and loved ones. I just found out a few days ago. I am so sorry for your loss. I am still in shock. I worked with Kim at the hospital. She was a dear friend and always listened to all my troubles and offered some great advice. I miss her beautiful cheery face everyday. God bless.

Her and I kept in contact by phone when she moved to Oregon and Colorado.  She would tell me about all of her adventures.  She was a beautiful person and; I will miss her friendship. May peace in time come to her family and husband during this difficult time.


We were going to adopt a little girl & decided to take our chances & God rewarded us with Kimmy. We were spoiled & blesses all these years with her loving giving heart. Now it is so difficult to think of a day without her in my life. A lifetime means every breath I take is painful. What keeps me going is knowing that the only way I can help her is to help her other loved ones.  This will help me get through each day of my life till I'm rewarded with joining her someday.
Her Dad

Judy,
     I don't even know what to say. My parents felt like Kim was one of their own. I felt the same from you and Bob Sr. and I had 2 brothers, Shawn and Bobby thrown into the mix. It's been a long time, but you made the effort and hand delivered the tragic news to my house, which I know couldn't of been easy. I'm sorry I missed you when you came by, hugging you and talking to you would probably help close this empty hole in my heart, making it a little smaller. The most difficult thing I ever had to do, was email the news to my parents. It's no secret, they loved Kim dearly, and I wasn't doing well processing the information for myself, how the heck was I going to pass the news on to them, in an appropriate fashion. Took me an hour to put together the email which consisted of 3 straight forward lines. Your family's loss has devastated our family as well... so please, if you want to get together and talk about the "good ol' days", the best part of my life, or if there is anything we can do to help you stabilize during this dark period of adjustment, don't hesitate to call on us. "Love" is a source of strength, so feel free to take advantage of all that we have, cause there's plenty here with your name on it. From the Ruiz family to the O'gorman family... our thoughts and prayers are with you. ~ Rich

Kimmy was the most beautiful, loving, thoughtful, kind and generous person in the world.  She was definitely an angel here on earth,always doing for others. She is an angel in heaven with God now. Her and her wonderful husband Brian were true soul mates. So happy and so in love. I know she will be watching over all her loved ones from heaven above. Kimmy you will always be in our hearts and our thoughts, never forgotten.  I love you forever and always.

Even though it's been so many years,
time was unable to stop the tears...

Wonderful memories I'll never forget,
giving new meaning to "cool",
girls on bikes definitely rule,
making that "Boss" move like a rocket..

With a smile like a beam of light,
I can honestly say,
I've seen night turn to day,
hope Heaven prepared for "epic" bright!

I knew her as a beautiful child and a smiling, and giving beautiful adult.  I had the pleasure of seeing and hugging her just before Christmas this past year.  It had been much too long.  She was loved by everyone who knew her and will be missed so much by everyone who loved her.

Brian,

We are in utter shock to learn of Kim's passing, and we are sorry that we learned of her memorial service the day after it occurred.  We regret that we were not there to hug you and say personally how very sorry we are.  We are praying for you and the rest of your family for the strength to get through this very difficult time.

Kim was not only a great co-worker but an awesome friend.  She was a person that could make a horrible day turn into a great day with her smile and make you always laugh. I know that Kim loved Brian with all her HEART and will now be his ANGEL from above.  There is just not enough good that I can say about Kim. I had a long talk with her on 12-31 and I so treasure that conversation.  Kim,  I miss you already.  We had some great times together...Until we meet now not in Colorado but in Heaven.

Our Kimmie will be missed so much by all of us. She was sunshine and smiles and happiness all mixed up into one special person that we will never forget. You will always be in our thought and prayers. Heaven has gained what we have lost we love you Kimmie until we meet again.

I knew her smile & shine touched everyone, but it is nice to confirm what I already knew, my daughter left a piece of her with everyone she knew. We are so grateful for the beautiful comments.

She was the cement for her family and many loved one. The strong caring binding agent that always thought of everyone else first even when she was dealing with her own loss. She was radiant with her beautiful smile and lit up the room when she was there. It is nice to know that so many people loved her. Thank you all. Her mom

The loss of Kimmie will be felt by more than we can imagine. She always talked of big plans for when she got to heaven, I am sure she continues to touch others. Although her light burns eternally, a piece of me is gone forever. RIP my dear friend.

Dear Brian,  We are devastated to hear this news.  Kim's smile, humor and fantastic meals highlight just a few traits we will shall always remember about her. Kindest regards...

My deepest sympathy to Kim's husband Brian an their families! I worked with Kim in Central service, always came to work with a smile on her face, RIP dear friend, an bless your family!

So many good times, truly sad that you are gone so early. God must have a bigger plan for you. You will be missed! Love ya Kim!

Brian... There are no words.  I will always love 'Miss Kimberly'...Will always have her in my heart and will never forget the profound impact she had on my life. I will say a prayer every day for you to find a way way to go forward without her in your life. You are in my thoughts and all my love goes out to you.  MaryLee

Dear Brian, 
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. May time ease your sorrow and soothe your soul.

This is such sad news! Brian and Family i'm so so sooo sorry for your loss.  I worked with Kim and used to get together to play volleyball and hang out all the time when they lived in Cameron Park.  It was her that got me to try deer meat for the first time.  So many good times had.  She was such a great person. My thoughts are with her family.  Even though you all don't know me Hugs to everyone.

Rest in peace Kim. I'll miss you and will never forget all the great memories of us hanging out at Lori and Scott's house. You always gave sound advice while never failing to be there for anyone of us if you were needed. You had a heart of gold and a beautiful sole. God has you now and i'm sure your giving him an ear full. Love and miss you Kimmy. Just rest my friend. Muahhh.

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.
