Please accept our heartfelt condolences on the passing of Kim.  We knew Kim from the neighborhood where she lived growing up.  I believe that she was in my older sister’s class in school.  I cannot verify that as she joined her Lord and Savior in December 2014.  My parents and I are so very sorry for your loss.  Take solace in knowing she is restored to her full beauty and health and we will all meet again in heaven.  
With Sincere Sympathy,
Karen Johnson & Dave and Pat Johnson

Bob and family.  Karen and I would like to express our sincere sympathies on the lose of Kim.  I’ll always remember the expression on her face when we bumped into each other at Weis and you put something in my shopping cart saying “I got to close to the display and it just fell in.”  Karen didn’t get it either ’til I explained it to her.  We so wanted to be there in person tonight but we are committed to an appointment we just can’t reschedule.  Our sympathies are with you all.  Bob and Karen Himmelberger

We met Kim and Bob on a cruise in October 2012, during Hurricane Sandy.  We became fast friends and discovered many things we had in common.  We have done many cruises with them since then.  Kim always brought candy on the cruises for the crew and staff, knowing they appreciate the thoughtfulness of us who are repeat passengers.  She was always thinking of someone else and took care of the crew in her own way.
As simple and as trite as this may seen, we want to offer a little ditty:
Rose are red,
violets are blue, 
you have a place in our hearts,
and we will definitely miss you!
RIP to one of the sweetest people we have ever met.  The world has lost a truly beautiful person.  Until we meet again…..

My heartfelt condolences to Kim’s loving family. A life well lived Kim! I worked with Kim for 10 Years at HACC and only recently learned of her illness. To Bob, Shelly and Brandy, I feel so lucky to have known her. She was a Mom & wife who always had her family in her uppermost thoughts and cared immensely for you all. She will be missed but an inspiration for me to remember what is really important in life.

So sorry for your loss. I didnt know Kim that well, just by talking with her by phone. I am a co-worker from the bookstore on the Harrisburg campus. Each and every time I spoke with her, she was always so sweet and pleasant. She will be missed by many. Prayers go out to you and your family at this difficult time.

Bob, Brandy, Shelley and family,                                  Very saddened by the loss of my dear coworker Kim. I worked many years at the bookstore with Kim and worked with Shelley for a short time. Kim always talked about her wonderful family and three granddaughters. We will miss her terribly, a missing vessel of our team, now without pain taken way too quickly. Thoughts and prayers to all the family during this most difficult time.                                                                  JoAnne McCarthy

We are shocked & saddened to learn of Kim’s passing and your unimaginable loss.
