Dear Friends and Family, A recording of Kimberly's funeral is available for streaming via the following link. Please paste it separately in your web browser https://client.tribucast.com/tcid/a24056464616395 Kim's picture slideshow (with music so please turn the volume up on your computer). Please paste it separately in your web browser https://m.youtube.com/watch?si=1Y_Eb6-LE9Rzt33s&v=FjP-slGnhTE&feature=youtu.be Kim's Mercy Meal (Please excuse my piano playing at the beginning as I was attempting "The Rose" by Bette Midler. That's what happens when you try to learn it the night before with no sleep). Please paste it separately in your web browser https://m.youtube.com/watch?si=ngk0EaDgkj8sm_os&v=r1nIgkqrybw&feature=youtu.be These videos will be available indefinitely and can only be seen if you have the link. You cannot find these videos by searching on YouTube. They are intentionally hidden. If you select the "View Headstone" menu choice on Kim's web page you can view it (If you select the picture and then hold the CTRL button on your keyboard and use the scroll on your mouse, you can zoom in on the text). The flowers in the picture were placed there on Kim's birthday (2024), which she shares with her daughter. If you select View Map on Kim's web page it only shows the section of the cemetery where Kim and her family are buried and not the exact location. There is a way to get the exact location. If you go into Apple Maps on your phone (probably this works on the maps for an Android phone too) and paste in the following GPS coordinates, the exact location of Kim’s grave will be shown on the map on your phone: 42.32266° N, 71.93515° W One year ago in 2023, Kim and I chose a grave marker together for her family plot. Because we thought we’d be married soon, she chose to take my last name “LaMarche” and have it displayed on the marker. I spoke to family and friends and we decided to honor Kim's wishes. Because of this choice, “LaMarche” is the last name on Kim's marker instead of the last name many of you know Kim by “Callan”. To make it easy for anyone to find Kim’s grave, the cemetery duplicated her listing using the last names “LaMarche” and “Callan”. Please see the links to her two listings below (Note: that posting something to the Guestbook link under one listing doesn’t automatically duplicate it to the other listing, so if you want it in both places you need to add it to both web pages.): https://www.wcmp.org/burials/kimberly-m-callan/29778/ https://www.wcmp.org/burials/kimberly-m-lamarche/29908/ I think it would mean a lot to Kim to have her friends visit her. Please stop by and say a prayer for her. I think you will find the location beautiful and peaceful. Thank you for all of your support. I am forever grateful to all of you for the love you showed Kim and her daughter. Sincerely, Tom LaMarche (Kimberly's fiancé)

Goodbye Kim To ignore a love that is endless is a sin. I could never turn my back on you my love. My heart has never been held deeper and harder than by you. Without you my soul feels crushed. Every day I have to teach myself to walk again without you by my side. The way you could read my mind. How your face lit up like the sun blazing into my being. That is irreplaceable. It should only happen to a human once for fear I would melt from the agony if I were to lose it again. In my depths you dwell, a spirit of love that taught me the world. Forever will I ache for your touch.
