"Randall Rader (aka Randy, Shikellamy class of 1975) and family members of Kim Christine: Extravagant grace and mercy extended to all of you during your time of enexpected grief. While Kim and I have not communicated since prior to her moving to Arizona; wanted you all to know that my heart is truly filled with wonderful memories our neighborhood friendship in Norry at Dorman's Dairy Bar, your wonderful family with their awesome catering & party business, fishing trips to your camp and my one week vacation to Texas to visit Kim in Roger's home. That trip is the one moment in time that changed the plans for my recently attained adult status. Next change of direction for me was moving to TEXAS in the fall of 1977. Then to Louisiana in 1982 & now in FL since 2008 transitioning my parents from here to eternity. Currently, I am an adult "orphan" since March of 2020 when my father passed away. Enough about me. I have in recent days been reviewing Kim's career at Southwest and her many friendships established there. Just wanted to check-in so you would have the additional reassurance that she was a positive influence to others even more "senior" than her. [RANDY we missed our 50th class reunion. I've missed all of the others except one, as well]. Have most recently been to our old stopming grounds in 2017. I took Dad while he was still upwardly mobile for a one-week rendezvous. Kim was always Kim wherever she went; whomever she was with. Much like myself. With praise and thanksgiving for her life of service. A life well-lived. With highest regards I remain, Cindy Dorman 228 Meadowlark Drive Osteen, FL. cindyad16@gmail.com"
