Requiescat in pace, Connie. Kim, if you ever see this, I'm terribly sorry for your loss.

Words are so inadequate at times like this, and I don't know the Du Toits well at all. May they find strength and peace.

My condolences to him and his family.

Is there anyway we can express our thoughts to Kim directly, or where he would see them?

Or would he even want to hear from us?

It is sad to hear of her passing, but joyous it was quickly and surrounded by loved ones. Condolences.

My condolences as well. Meeting Kim and Connie, even if it was just over the internet, was a life changing event for me.

Curmudgeonly & Skeptical has a thread about Connie and Kim, you can post a comment there. Kim and Rodger (host of the blog) are friends.

Kim's page is still working, there are instructions there on how to email him:
