Jennifer Goe doesn't know the Kim Vezina who had a drug and alcohol problem. The Kim she knew was her little sister, who'd make up annoying songs as a kid and do spot-on Austin Powers impressions. The little girl Goe pictures is one with such a dynamite sense of humor that she could make the angriest of folks burst into laughter. It's the memories of that laughter, and performing Stuart Smalley sketches from Saturday Night Live together, that Goe wants to recall now. "Kim loved to entertain people and make people laugh," Goe says. "She should've been an improv comedian." Vezina, 27, was found floating near Fullers Bay in Lake Coeur d'Alene on Nov. 9/Quinn Western, Pacific Northwest Inlander. More here.
