Kim Harrington Obituary

Visit the Mattson Funeral Home & Cremation Service website to view the full obituary.

Kim (Hedican) Harrington, age 62, of Stacy, Minnesota, passed away suddenly on October 1, 2025.

Kim found great joy in caring for her flower gardens and creating beauty around her home. She loved camping trips and cooking meals to share with family and friends. A natural athlete, she enjoyed playing volleyball, broomball, and softball, and always brought energy and fun to the game. She also had a special love for the holidays, especially Christmas, and delighted in adding to her ever-growing Christmas village, which became a treasured tradition.

Family was always at the center of Kim’s life, and she was grateful for the many wonderful friends who filled her days with laughter and support.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Tom and Connie Hedican; brother, Gary “Moe” Hedican; brother-in-law, Jim Onasch; and stepson, Bob. She will be deeply missed by her husband, Jim; daughter, Melissa (Caleb) Considine; grandchildren, Zach and Olivia; siblings, Bill (Cheryl) Hedican and Vicki Onasch; stepchildren, Kellie (Dan) Koskinen and Shawn; step-grandchildren, Patrick, Bobby, Michael and Willey; along with many other family members and dear friends.

A Funeral Service will be held at 11 AM, on Saturday, October 11, 2025, at Mattson Funeral Home, 343 North Shore Drive, Forest Lake. Visitation will be 10-11 AM at the funeral home with service to follow. Burial at Calvary Cemetery, Forest Lake.

Kim will be remembered for her warm heart, her fun-loving spirit, and the joy she brought into the lives of those who loved her.
