Guest Book
Age 55 formerly of Newport, passed away unexpectedly on January 18, 2026.
Kim will be deeply missed by her sons, Dylan (Andrea) Noren, Tyee (Grace), Jake (Dakota), and Brody Williams; her parents, Jim and Linda Anderson; her sister, Jamie (Howard) Jacobs; her niece, Sawyer Jacobs; her nephew, Palmer Jacobs; her many aunts, uncles, cousins, and her beloved pets, Harley and Dexter, who brought her great comfort and joy.
Kim had a deep love for nature and creativity. She was an avid flower gardener, a crafty creator, and an enthusiastic rock hobbyist who found joy in the beauty of nature’s gifts. She was also a proud, lifelong Minnesota Vikings fan. Her love extended beyond sports and hobbies to the many animals who brightened her days and filled her heart.
A devoted member of her community, Kim generously shared her time and talents as a former member of the Washington County Horticultural Society and the Washington County Agricultural Society, where she helped cultivate an appreciation for the arts and gardens that enriched the lives of those around her.
Kim was a dedicated employee of FedEx Ground for many years, where she was valued not just as an administrative professional but also as a cherished colleague and will be remembered fondly by all who worked with her.
A celebration of Kim’s life will be held on Thursday, February 5, 2026 at 2pm at the Bradshaw Celebration of Life Center, 2800 Curve Crest Boulevard, Stillwater, Minnesota with visitation one hour prior to the service.
In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to the Animal Humane Society in honor of Kim’s deep love for animals. https://www.animalhumanesociety.org
