Hello, I’m Courtney Rose and I’ve been asked by her next of kin, Jeff Klimp to create this gfm to support our best girl Karla Pinky Grimes.

I’ve been friends with Karla for over ten years, attending conferences, classes, weekly FaceTimes and I even had the privilege of naming two chickens myself, my god chickens Rick James and Peeps. Karla was an absolute joy to be around, speak to or get a hug from.

She meant a lot to so many of us, and currently her people are asking for some help with cremation and memorial service costs.

We have a group of local friends, piercers, etc who will be helping set up further arrangements with more info to follow.

Jeff Klimp and Carolyn Klimp will be handling the appropriation of funds for Karla and the donations will go directly to them. From the family: “Karla always wanted to feel

Like she was liked, like she belonged, she just really wanted friends and wanted to feel like she was a part of something. She loved her piercer babe and chicken groups, and all she wanted was to feel like she belonged.

She needed to feel wanted, and needed. I just know that all the people that are going to help, or share a story, the more the merrier, because in real life, she would have wanted that.”

We love you Karla, today, tomorrow and forever in our hearts.

Thank you to anyone who has shared our poster, tried to help us flyer, reached out.

in case you needed Some Chicken love ❤️ today, perhaps this can brighten this time for us all.
