    For what it's worth, at age 40, I don't think I've been saddened more by a loss of someone I knew nothing about, other than the beauty Kimberly conveys in Touring Band 2000.

    All thanks to one video, where she showed us her spirit, her true self,
    And that moment lives on in infamy. In a really special and unique way.. Kim can NEVER be forgotten.
    I hope Connor can watch it whenever he misses his mom, and feel close to her; she whom has been Given To Fly.

    Nicely put.

    What sad news to read this.
    The fact that she leaves a son behind is devastating.

    As bittersweet as it must be to watch his mom in that video.
    It shows a woman that in fact has been Given to fly.
    You can see it in her energy. She choose her profession and
    she made it one where she could be of service to others.

    I've always felt touched by this clip and thought it to be cool how she who helped others experience a show, got the spotlight at that time.

    My heart goes out to you Conner and family.
    It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.

    Such sad news...my heart goes out to Kim's family especially Conner. Easily the best clip from the Touring Band dvd. Rest in Peace Kim... you will be remembered fondly by many.
    All the rusted signs we ignore throughout our lives,.....choosing the shiny ones instead,......
