What to Expect

Feel free to come and go—it’s a long, easygoing afternoon with a few scheduled moments:

• 1:30 pm – Family remarks, followed by open sharing of stories, memories, and tributes (everyone welcome to share a few words).

• 3:00 pm – Family music and poetry, followed by more open sharing.

Note: A quiet room indoors and picnic tables outside will be available for anyone who needs a break or a quiet moment.

After the program, some may head to Squirrel’s to keep visiting—no official plans, just an option for whoever feels like spending more time together.

Please join us—in person or by livestream—as we honor Kim and the bright, joyful life she shared with each of us.

With love,
💜 Ricky, Sarah, and Luke
