She especially loved listening to music, being pampered, and attending concerts. These experiences brought smiles to her face and provided many cherished moments for those who cared for her.

She is survived by her guardian, Jamie Chase of Ogdensburg, as well as the many caregivers and housemates from her home at the Rensselaer Falls ICF. They were an important part of Kim’s daily life and shared many memories and special moments with her over the years.

She will be remembered fondly by her guardian, caregivers, housemates, and all who had the privilege of knowing her.
