"I have so many great memories of "Kil". I took art class every year in school because we had such a great relationship. She was witty and funny, I just loved her. One thing she told me that always stuck with me is that uneven numbers of anything is more pleasing and I use that advice in everything I do. My heart is saddened at her passing and my thoughts go out to her family and friends. Rest In Peace Mrs. K. I will never forget you."
