It made you feel lighter, healthier… you were you. It'll always be our favorite lifers tradition because it's where we spend time with all of our kids being together and get real time with each other without any outside noise. 'We felt your absence this year in every sunset, every laugh, every quiet moment. 'Looking back at these pictures from a year ago, I feel so grateful for all the memories we made. We miss you so f****** much, Lindz. Our world is not the same without you. I guess that's why I hold onto this lake tradition so tightly. We'll always have the lake — and in that, we'll always have a piece of you.' Kim was flooded with messages of support from her fans, with one person writing: 'Beautifully said,' and another wrote: 'love this Kim 💜.'
