Always living her life in a positive manner, she charged on, never wanting to waste. a minute, and always making a difference. Her life was one of strength, love, compassion and coursge. Kimberly was born to parents Carl And Donna (Ingram) Smith on March 1, 1975, in Enumclaw, Washington. She was a graduate of Enumclaw High School in 1993, and Washington State University in 1997. Having made her home in Nevada since 2004, she was employed By Nobu, Inc. an international company. She was based in Las Vegas, NV. Kimberly enjoyed most outdoor activities, cheered for the Cougars, Seahawks, and the Mariners and was known at times to hold a very lucky poker hand. She was the ultimate hostess, an excellent food critic, and had an amazing memory. She was a champion fundraiser for Susan G. Komen for the cure (Southern Nevada affiliate), earning honors this year. Our Kimberly will always be remembered for the love and respect she had for each person she encountered in life, as well as being a good steward of the earth and all the creatures upon it.
