My deepest sympathies to the Roe family. Kim was a truly remarkable and beautiful lady. I always admired her humor, loyalty, and enormous heart. Rest in peace dear Kim.
Bob Crayton says
I once heard someone say that it’s not death that brings us the greatest loss in life, but all that dies inside of us. As life goes on, I hope that Kim’s family will find ways to celebrate the memory of their devoted mother. I know she would want us all to live every day to the fullest and continue the celebration of her contagious love for life. May time speed your healing and you find comfort in your fondest memories.
From the bottom of our hearts and we join your large circle of friends and family who wish to bring you consolation during your time of grief.
Passing time can never fade
All the special memories made;
Loved ones never really part
For they live inside your heart… our hearts!!!

Rika Schoenke says
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you and hope that peace will be with all of you in the coming days. Kim was truly an angel here on Earth and now she has her wings…
Claire Jean-Baptiste says
I hope that in due time you receive God’s peace that excels all thought, so that it will guard your hearts and your mental powers by means of Christ Jesus. As you know, God is called the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation. Rest assured that he cares for all his creatures and he would never bring us suffering. A soothing scripture is Psalm 34:18 which reads: “Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart, and those who are crushed in spirit he saves.” Sincerely.
Tucker Robinson says

Keri, Kelly and Kevin,
We are so sorry for your loss. Our heart aches for you and all of your family. Your mom was such a wonderful person, always upbeat, friendly and a very kind soul. Your mom was truly one of the most open and giving human beings I have ever met. She loved you kids so much and was always so proud of all of you. Her love always showed through whenever she spoke about any of you. The world has lost a “one of a kind” person. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. With our deepest sympathy, Nancy & Jessica
