Kimberly Gonzalez Obituary

Visit the Johnson Funeral Home - Salem website to view the full obituary.
I am writing this on behalf of myself and brother, Johnny Gonzalez. I am sad to say our mother Kimberly Gonzalez has suddenly passed away, August 4th, 2023.

Kimberly Ann Pacheco was born on April 10th, 1964, to John and Willadean Pacheco. Kimberly had a older sister, Melva Bengtson and Mitzi Stewart.

Kimberly, gave birth to daughter, Brandy on January 1st, 1984 and then married Howard Gonzalez, December 10th, 1988 and soon after gave birth to her son Johnny on February 21st, 1989. Kim was blessed with amazing parents and family and two beautiful children.

Kimberly Ann Gonzalez (Pacheco) is preceded in death by her father, John Pacheco, mother Willadean Pacheco, neice Naomi Stewart (Fox), sister Melva Bengtson

She will be truly missed by many. Especially her children, her sister Mitzi Stewart, her niece Mary Stewart, her grandson Raymond and many other family members and friends.

I honestly am still in shock and disbelief that our mom is gone, way too soon. She had so much to do in the years to come. My heart is broken and I have so many emotions and not sure how we will heal. But we are strong and we will get through this together. Our family has suffered two great losses in such a short time period that we would greatly appreciate time for grieving and healing in this painful time. Please keep our family in your thoughts and prayers as we start to heal from such tragedies.

There will be a celebration of life at a later date. I will post as soon as we get plans in order.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
