Kimmy, I love you. You were there for me when I needed someone, even if I wanted to be alone you were still there. I wish I would have stayed in touch, I’m sorry I wasn’t there when you needed me. Wild child that you are you always tried to be true to your friends and family. Michael your mom loves you so much and she was raising a strong, independent boy. Skylar you are a sweet little lady and I wish I was around to see you grow as beautiful as your mom. But at least now she can see her mom that she missed so much and watch over her loved ones with her. I’m sorry Kimmy for not being there to at least hear your rant. You will always be loved and valued as my best butt buddy. ?

Shannette Lane says
I first met Kim when Michael was in preschool, we formed a friendship over Thomas the train (I had to learn about Thomas quickly) since that was the only way Michael left his mom’s side. Kim, I didn’t see you often but I’ll miss the chats we had.
To Kim’s family, I am so sorry for your loss.

Ernest L. Eades says
Kim, I love you and miss you everyday. I talk with kyra about you and Michael and skylar all the time. I’m sorry I wasn’t out to be there. I possibly could’ve prevented this. I just hope that when my time comes I can see you again in the life after this. If I could change things and some of the choices I’ve made I would do it in a heart beat just to hear your voice again. I love you and I’ll continue to help casey and kyra as best I can along with your sister. I still am searching for mama odie. Idk I feel like there’s more to this that she can tell me. I’ll visit you every chance I get. You may be gone for now but will never be forgotten. I’ll see you again soon ❤️
Skylar Niles says
Hey Kim we all miss you dearly I wish I could’ve made more memories with you but sadly I could not. I will always miss you and you will always be in my heart. I have made so many poems about you it’s insane. I feel like if you saw me now you would be so surprised. When I was taken out of class the day I was told that you died I started walking to the old silver titan that my dad still drives wondering if I had an appointment I didn’t know about. It wasn’t that. When I heard “Your mom, Kim,” and then “died”. I was bawling. I cried for over a day. I thought is was all my fault. I thought that maybe I could bring you back. I bought a book with ‘spells’ in it. I tried one. You didn’t come back. I cried even more. For now I will try my best to keep you from having a bad daughter. I love you so much. Please never forget. I hope your life that you have now won’t end up like this one. When I have kids I’m gonna name one after you. I will never forget you. I love you mom. R.I.P. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
