Kim Wimmer was born and raised in Salem, Va. She was a 1st grade teacher in Roanoke County Schools for 22 years until she had to take early retirement several years after her diagnosis of MS 6 years ago.

This benefit is to help offset the medical expenses they have acquired and to help with the purchases of a motorized wheelchair and a specialized van with a handicap access ramp that will help keep Kim as active and involved as possible in life. Kim knows better than anyone how to live, love and laugh. She just needs help now to be able to continue doing that with the family and friends she loves.
Kim has always loved food, travel, music and people. Her spirit cannot be matched by many . Her goal of always being a good person, wife, mother and friend still comes first even though she has major medical needs. Please consider this request to help us to help her enjoy the independence and mobility that is essential in everyday living
The benefit committee recently held a charity golf tournament on August 18, 2012 and it was a lots of fun and a big success. To build on that, we're holding several other events included in the website, topped off by a big benefit concert on September 15, 2012 at the Salem Moose Lodge.
Please come out and join us for any and all events. Kim and Gary would love to see you all!
Kindest Regards
