We are all devastated for the loss of a wonderful friend and mother Valerie Kimes. Anyone lucky enough to have met her could sit and talk with her for hours. She was an amazing and creative soul who saw the beauty in everything around her.  Valerie was a published author, who enjoyed traveling to many schools and reading to the children. Valerie passed away on May 2, 2020 surrounded by her loving husband, her three daughters and their families after a short battle with liver disease. We have set up ago fund me page to help cover funeral expenses for her husband Louis in honor of Valerie Kimes. Please consider donating if you are able to do so. Louis and the family appreciate every donation during this difficult time.
