KIMBERLY JAMES MARSHALL

Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

• Dear Sharon and members of Kim's family it is with heavy heart and sadness that we extend our sincere condolences. I am writing this on behalf of Bill Vogan who is traveling in China and unable to message you. We will always remember Kim's smile and laugh and his encouragement. We both learned so much about martial arts and life from him and it is hard for us to accept his loss. We remember the wonderful times we spent together at our cottage in the Whiteshell and Kim's love for life. The summer camps were also filled with learning and lots of fun. We will never forget Kim! As has been said Kim was a real warrior. With deep emotion.....Dave Lyons and Bill Vogan - Posted by: Dave Lyons And Bill Vogan (Karate Ka and Friends) on: Oct 07, 2016

• I first met Sensei Kim many years ago while investigating the theft of swords (katana) from his dojo on Ness Ave. I was fortunate enough to be able to have retrieved the subject swords and return them to him. While I have never trained with him I could tell that he was a true practitioner & follower of Boshido. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. To his family, please accept my condolences and know that Kim was highly respected inside and outside of Karate. Respectfully, Donald Brown ......................

• My son is currently in the home school karate class. When he was 6 yrs old, he tried out the class but because it is a mixed age class and he was the youngest, we felt the timing wasn't right. Kim of course said he was welcome back whenever he was ready. A few days later when driving past the dojo, Jack said, "that might not be my dojo right now but he will always be my sensei!" It was so sweet and sincere it stuck with me. It sounds like Kim will always be many people's sensei. - Posted by: Lisa Wilcox (Mother of student) on: Oct 07, 2016
