This is very surreal and my heart goes out to you and your family. I met Kim in yoga teacher training at Kripalu and always remember how sweet and calm she was. After our training, I liked keeping up with her on Facebook and shared in her joy at becoming a mother. I can't fathom what you are going through, but I know you have a guardian angel watching over you. She really was an angel on earth.

It's with broken hearts that we will always remember Kim... She's been a part of our family for over 17 years and was always happy, kind, loving and caring. She lit up the room with her presence and the world is now a little colder and darker without her. She will always be missed, May she rest in peace knowing that her family and friends will always be looking out for Chuck, Mary Rose and Little Louie just like she did with everyone she knew.

I am so incredibly sorry for your loss of this amazing woman, mom and friend. Kim and her dogs were our daughter’s first friends when we lived in Tinton Falls. Hayley loved them so much that we took her 2nd Christmas pictures at Kim’s apartment! I have to find the photos.
Please accept our deepest condolences. Hugs to everyone, especially her mom and sister.

Dear Kim,
In the short time I met you, you were always a great reminder of what really matters in life. Whenever we rushed in and out of the house to get to work or to get the kids to their commitments, wrapped in a cloud of stress, you would warmly wave at us or cross the street to say hello, to ask how we were, to greet us or offer a hug. And it made me pause, it made me grab onto that mindfulness we so much needed but did not dare to pursue.
You took time to connect and to get to know us. You opened your home and showed generosity to your friends and neighbors and always listened.
Today, we witness Mary become that human. We see her take on the same kindness, care and love you showed for others and I am confident she will pass it on to sweet baby Louis.
Your presence in this world will forever be missed. And I will forever think of you and your big smile when I open my front door. I will remember what matters, we will pause and we will hug your family.
Love,
Natalia, Tim, Olivia and Sabrina.

I met Kim, Katie and Mary about a year ago at the Barnegat Bay Beach. Mary and my daughter Grace hit it off right away. Kim and I did too. From that day on we tried to have weekly play dates. Obviously due to life, sickness etc it was longer time frames in between sometimes but she became a dear friend very quickly. We bonded over being older mama’s having young children in our 40’s and also needing the help of fertility to have children. I felt like we just got each other, understood each other in a way that others didn’t. She was always checking in, knew and remembered every doctor apt I had. She was my greatest cheerleader. One of the most genuine, caring and loving individuals I have ever met. She loved her husband, Charlie so much. Mary was her world and she couldn’t wait to bring Louie in to share that world with them. She was such a great mama bear… so loving, caring, and patient. I admired her patience.
Grace calls her snacks “snacky-poos” because of Mary and Kim and asks for them everyday. The parks we frequented will never be the same.
I love and miss you Kim. The impact and friendship we had in such a short time will forever be in my heart. Grace and Mary will continue to be besties and my family will forever support yours in love, prayers and continued friendship.
