I'm sorry to be the one to break it to those who knew her and hadn't heard. While Kimberly hasn't been active in a long time here, she was always one of my heroes. By a stroke of luck, I got one of the last dogs she whelped, Jillie, and Jillie's social skills say all you need to know about Kimberly King. As a breeder, she had friends and she had enemies, but she knew how to raise Yorkies.

Her Web site, Yorkie breeders site: AKC Yorkshire Terrier breeder exhibitor of yorkie puppies - Yorkiepassion, is packed with information about Yorkie care and ownership that is a must read for Yorkie owners. I hope the information she has there can be preserved.

R.I.P., Kimberly. Thanks for teaching me about Yorkies. You will be missed.

My heart feels such sadness that Kim is not here physically with us any longer, God now holds a very Dear One within HIS realm as one of our Guardian Angels watching over us and our furbabies.

So many times I recall Kim being available to help others, being on line or by phone helping others through difficult whelpings Days & during many a Night she made herself available to help others, many a yorkie babies first start in life was with her helping them, such a kind and caring lady Kim was, she will always be remembered and thought of in a very special way for many of us here within the Yorkie Talk Family.

Thank you Mike for your loving and caring tribute in Kim's honor.

Hugs, Patti and Jack and Girls.
