Kim was an amazing person. We connected through YACC a number of years back and she was an inspiration. She was always there to listen. Always there to share a laugh, to cry, to give advice. She was kind, but full of gumption. There are no words to express the loss that I feel. I miss you, dearest Kim. You are loved and your courage will be remembered. I am so happy you were able to go on your dream trip and share those memories with me. Please accept my deepest condolences.

Kim,
I'll always remember sharing a room with you at Retreat in 2015. We talked for quite some time. I was new then to the cancer world. You were kind, loving and caring we talked about anything and everything. You were always so full of life. We miss you. We love you. We will never forget you. I am glad you are no longer in pain, rest easy Kimmy. xo

Kim was such a light for fellow cancer warriors and I hope she knew this too. She always shared her great wisdom and experience with others, even though she had her own battle. She gave me hope that I too can live with cancer and defy odds. I wish her family peace and love.

Kim kept this with her and always told me how much this moment meant to her. I have a rock that she made for me and I will cherish it forever.

I met Kim in Coburg at a YACC retreat. It was my first experience with a cancer group and I was a little nervous. I hadn't made friends yet but while hearing Kim speak about her life and her passions to the group, I painted a doily for her with the quote "you've been strange (all along)...the rules don't apply to me" based off something she had said. I found her later and presented it to her and told her the way she made me feel. From that moment on we had a connection that turned into a bond. Kim and I kept in touch via text conversations and 2 years ago I taught her how to use skype, she was nervous at first and then became an absolute natural. Her pets surrounded her and we talked about everything, especially art. She inspired me and I inspired her. I will miss so much about her love and her spirit. My eyes fill as I write this and my heart pours over with love for her. I wanted to share this piece of Kim with the world, our random connection, something so special that will never be replaced.
To Ryan, I promised Kim I would paint your pun ideas and I will do that. Peach cobbler, celery stalker and beet cancer. I will paint with Kim in my heart always.
All my love forever,
Tiffany.

My sincere condolences to Kim's family. Ryan, I can only imagine how sad you must feel right now. I have never met Kim, but from what I have read about her, she was a very strong young lady, you are going to draw from that strength Ryan, you know she would want that. I'm so sorry that you have to go through losing your sweetheart, especially at such a young age. It is so unfair. Sending much love to you, xoxo

Kim will always be remembered as the most strongest individual that I have ever known. Her passion for living life in the moment was infectious, as I have always looked up to her as she followed her dreams. She was and will always be my favourite person in the entire world, and can't simply imagine this world without her. Sending my deepest condolences to her beautiful family, the pain you are going through is undeniable. I am thinking of all of you during this difficult time. May Kim's spirit finally be at peace. <3
