Kathryn Kim Grover, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, passed away peacefully on October 10, 2025, at the age of 75.

Kathy lived such a beautiful life – loving with her whole heart. She showed her testimony through her actions, always living out Christlike love in everything she did – whether baking cookies for a new neighbor or volunteering in the LDS Church. Her funny sense of humor could light up anyone's day, and it was rare to see her without a smile; it shone brightest during family get-togethers, where she'd happily be talking, tickling, or playing with one or more of her 22 grandchildren. If asked to make something, like, "Grandma, can you make me a pie," she'd say "poof you're a pie," followed by a loving laugh and hug. When she didn't have an answer or didn't want others to worry, she would sing or say "que sera sera" with her characteristic warmth. She was always thinking of others, serving with kindness right up to the end. She touched so many lives in ways they'll never forget. As a devoted mom to her six kids-Chris, John (her favorite), Whitney, Heather, Ann, and Wes-Kathy opened her heart to their spouses too, loving Karli, Beth, Ryan, Dave, Brad, and Tiffany like her own. Now she's reunited with her parents in heaven, right there with her savior, Jesus Christ. Her legacy lives on in the countless lives she brightened with her love and compassion.

She's survived by her husband of 55 years, Ed, who she loved dearly; her children and their families, including her 22 grandchildren; and her sisters, Kerry and Marva.
