In memory of Kimberly Pierce
Read Like the Dickens
Read Like the Dickens is a foundation started in memory of John
Glynn's late wife, Kimberly who passed away in July 2007 of cancer.
Kimberly Pierce loved her family and the Arts; she also loved to
read, write, travel and learn new things. Kim loved to run small
marathons . A love of reading is something Kim and John had already
started to pass onto the children. The "Read Like the Dickens"
foundation is set up at New Market Bank where donations can be
sent. Monies raised from this race will be donated to the New Market
Library.
