She lived in Bakersfield all of her life, until she was unexpectedly taken from us too soon, July 17, 2013. Kim graduated from Foothill High School in 2002, where she played softball and volleyball and was very active in FFA. Her education continued at CSUB where she graduated with a B.S. in Business. Kim worked at the Padre Hotel since its reopening and loved her Padre family. Kim loved all of God's creatures, especially her kitties, Artie, Apollo, and B. Kim loved sports. The Yankees were her team and Derek Jeter was her favorite. Kim is preceded in death by her Granny, Lois Simpson. She is survived by her Mother and Father, Karen and Dewey Mills. Her Sister, Ashley Vaughn and husband Matt. Grandparents, Hank and Wanda Mills and Wayne Austin. Aunts and Uncles, Denise and Mike Jones, Dick Mills and David, Sandy and Mike Austin. Numerous cousins and many, many friends. Kim also held very close to her heart, Jesse Morales, and his daughter Kaitlyn. Kim's beautiful smile and contagious laugh will forever remain in our hearts. Viewing and visitation is scheduled for Friday, July 26 2013 from 4-8pm in the Chapel at Hillcrest Memorial. Funeral services will be Saturday July 27 2013 at 10am, also in the Chapel at Hillcrest Memorial, with graveside service immediately following. www.bakersfield.com/obits

Kimberly, we miss you terribly. There's a giant Kim shaped hole in the middle of us that nothing will ever be able to fill. As your Uncle Dickie, you made me so proud as you grew into the wonderful young lady that you became. You always gave so much more than you got; you expected so much less than you deserved. For someone so young you lived life well. We are all better for having known you.

Mills Family, I'm so sad to hear about Kim. It comes with great shock! Our family's were together a lot in the 13 yrs Kim went to Orangewood, Edison and Foothill High School with my children, I got a front roll seat of your loving supportive Family over the years Kim was so lucky to have parents like you! The Mills Family is one of my favorite Familys! My heart deeply hurts for you at this time. Just know you will be together again someday, and
I'm sure Kim will be the first one meeting you at Heavens Gates. Go with God!
