Our thoughts and prayers are with Lloyd and Lloyd Jr. We will all miss Kim’s smile, energy and good nature.
Kim was a wonderful, friendly neighbor and our prayers for your family will continue through this difficult time.
Kim, I am truly sorry to hear of your passing. I would drive by and see you attending your garden and admiring your beautiful home. I moved here about three years ago, so sorry we had no time to get to know one another. I pray that the Good Lord brings comfort to your family. I remember the lady with the beautiful cat who would play with Hobie.
You are free from pain now and in a beautiful garden again.
RIP
So sorry to hear about Kim. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Thanks for letting us know.
She was one of my best friends. I am missing her like crazy. I can’t stand the thought of not ever seeing her pretty face again. I will meet her again in heaven I know but for now I am very lonely without her. She was a very special person. She had the sweetest soul of anyone I ever knew. She had a real heart of gold and such a zest for life. I will miss that little girl with all my heart. I loved her so much. Thank you Lord for giving her to us even for such a short time.
Hello Mr. Lytle, I aplogize for the late response but Myung and I will be there for Kim’s memorial service. Our prayers go with you and your family. May the Lord Jesus Christ bless and strengthen you during this time.
More pictures of my sweet Kim.
I met Kim when I started night shift at the P.O. and followed her to Broadway Station. We stayed in contact and later we both retired from different stations downtown. She was so nice and fun. She had such good humor and wit. She liked to laugh and make me laugh. She’s no longer in pain. Take Care
We met Kim a few years ago through our sister Kathy DelVecchio. Kim had a sweet demeanor and was always thoughtful and kind. We know she is now enjoying the comany of friends and family who passed before her. She will be missed by many. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Kim is one of the best: friend, neighbor, gardener, and poet. I will miss receiving her spontaneous poems, sharing her unique poetic language, expressing her immediate emotions and feelings. I am sorry that I can’t be there today, but am so thankful for our time together in Hawaii. Your smile and grace will shine through in my memories.
It was a beautiful service for Kim yesterday, and I was so touched to hear the stories of her life and see all the love in the room – praying for the peace that passes all understanding for all those whose lives she touched.
I see her smile every time when I think of her lately and I have been thinking of her often. I really miss her. It was good to get together and celebrate her life and hear all the great stories. So many people who loved her and are missing her right along with me. I bought flower baskets with the gift card she gave me for my last birthday and they are so beautiful. She is still giving. I know I will get to see my dear friend again, but until then, I have to remember I was so blessed to have known her.
