Kim
4 July 2023There are not many in Paremoremo that would fail to recognise the name Kim Ward. A local for twenty years, Kim (with the ongoing support of her husband, Frank) has been the backbone of this rural community. Here Kim speaks modestly about just a fraction of the projects she has worked on over the years, always in a volunteer capacity. With equal dedication, Frank has provided 8 pages of hand written notes detailing as many of the community initiatives as he could remember. Truly an inspiring couple, humble to a fault and continuing to this day to be putting back into their local community.
