At dawn on Sunday, September 19, 2004, Kimberly Pauli decided to end her life, and within hours did so in a most tragic way...

She was a darling person, whose consuming passions were only to love and be loved... and so we dedicate these pages to honor her memory.

While suicide always pierces the heart, in Kimberly's case there was no anger, no desire to hurt others, merely to end the pain we now see had become her constant companion, sadly seeing no alternative...

Here we have created a special place to remember Kimberly with the love she deserved in life, by sharing our stories about her devotion to animals and caring attitute toward all whom she met. Cats inspired her to spend evenings and weekends working to channel rescued kittens into loving homes, and how many of you have today the joy which only a feline friends can bring, thanks to Kimberly?

She leaves her family and friends behind, but let us take comfort in knowing Kimberly is at last at peace, no longer suffering, and forever a treasured part of our lives.
