I was Kim's realtor when she moved to PA. I was so fond of her and Dave they were more than just clients, they were friends. I was sad they were going to move back to the Midwest but I was happy they would be near so many family and friends that they truly did miss and talk about. The folks that bought Kim and Dave's house in PA turned out to be wonderful folks as well and the entire transaction was one for the books, the good books. Good people. Big hearts. Kim was such a wonderful person...

David and Andy and family - So sorry for your unexpected loss. I always enjoyed times together and enjoyed visiting you in Mississippi. Wish we would have had one more visit as time always gets away from you. Praying for you all in the days ahead as she loved her family.

Kim Ann (Morehead) Mowrey, age 69 of Elwood, passed away unexpectedly at home on Thursday, July 10, 2025 after a brief illness. She was born August 6, 1955 in Elwood, the daughter of Harold “Bud” and Juanita “Jane” (Coil) Morehead. Kim was a 1973 graduate of Alexandria High School before earning a bachelor’s degree in engineering from Purdue University.

As a lifelong fan of Purdue, Kim always cheered on the Purdue Boilermakers in every possible way. She was also passionate about scrapbooking and listening to her favorite musician – George Strait. Kim enjoyed traveling with her family to various areas of the country through the years, and she especially enjoyed visiting New Orleans. In recent years, she was blessed to move back to rural Elwood where she lived and renovated her parent’s farm property and home. Kim had a caring heart for animals and loved spending time with her beloved dogs, “Brees, Payton, and Edey” and her special cat, “Dusty”.
