Subject: Life will not be the same without her

I will always remember being greeted by Kimmi every morning in scheduling with, "Hey ya old box!" To which I would reply, "Did you sharpen your teeth this morning?" She would give that familiar cackle and then ask, "What time are we doing coffee, ya Bitch?"
Kimmi was one of my best friends. She was like that eccentric aunt that embarrassed everyone at family reunions. I learned so much from her about life and who I was. She taught me not to take life so seriously and to just enjoy myself.
My favorite Kimmi story happened a couple of years ago, right before the "Pirates" movie came out. We were all preparing for the premiere at the Park and they had distributed movie posters to all the cast members. One day I was Kimmi's closing lead and I came to find her in the office. When she saw me she got this big grin on her face and said, "Come here, you're gonna LOVE this." She stood up and on her chair was the movie poster folded up showing only Johnny Depp's face. She said, "Look, I'm sitting on Johnny's face." Then she sat down and proceeded to wiggle back and forth in her chair. With her eyes clenched she said, "OOOooooh, isn't he FINE! I just love him." Then she burst out laughing. I just shook my head and laughed right along with her. It was classic Kimmi.
I will miss her for the person she was and for helping make me the person I am today. I will never forget all that she did for me.
Kimmi-I love ya, ya old box! I'm sure that wherever you are, you've already taken over!
