    Kym,
    Only you would leave this place on my birthday to get the last laugh! You definitely made an impact on everything you did in life. You truly lived a great story. I’m going to miss you terribly. You always told me I could count on you, that you’ll always be there…and you never failed. Well, now God needs you more. I’ll cherish our friendship, talks and laugh fest we had and even the arguments you had with my husband, your friend Terry. I’ll miss the Sunday get togethers in California either at Joes or our place watching the Vikings. I’ll miss the calls when you were just checking in after Terry died. Our pizza burger days, your sweet onion muffins and stew your mom taught you to make. And damn, that is some great stew! Oh the laughs we had! The time you took my niece (and others) out for a boat ride on the Pacific and she saw the boat used in the pirate movie with Johnny Depp. I thought her eyes were going to pop out! She still talks about and she now is 27. Of course she was 12/13 at the time!There are so many that I could go on and on with but, you need to go now, Kym. You will live forever in my heart. There are few people in one’s travels you can truly call a friend and man, you are one of them! Rest In Peace, Kym. Never stop laughing. You taught us all how to wear it well. Please take care of Terry for me and try not to piss him off! Love you, my friend. Stacey ❤️
