Kimberly I. Meyer-Pelletier, 68 of Fairhaven, MA died peacefully on Friday, June 2, 2023 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. She was the loving wife of Richard C. Pelletier for 39 years.
Born in Hinesville, GA daughter of the late Arthur H. and Dorothy G. (Lavallee) Meyer, she grew up in a close-knit family in Wrentham, MA and spent her summer months in Mattapoisett enjoying all the beauty that Buzzards Bay had to offer. Once married she moved to Coventry, CT where she started a family and grew her own private practice as a Physical Therapist. Eventually she planted roots in Fairhaven, MA where she continued her life's work as a PT, healing those who were burdened with grief, trauma, and physical and emotional pain through mind, body, and soul connection.
Kim, had a zest for life and a taste for adventure. She spent many winters skiing in snowy Vermont. She traveled the world whenever the opportunity beckoned. More recently, she took up pickleball which complimented her competitive and fun-loving nature. She was a warm, caring, and compassionate person who was always eager to help others in their time of need.
In addition to the obituary, here are some heartfelt memories of Kimberly Meyer-Pelletier:
-Kim was Miss Wrentham 1973 during the tricentennial celebrations.
-Kim had a green thumb and nurturing her garden brought her great joy.
-Kim cherished the holidays. She loved spending time with her family, cooking delicious meals, and giving thanks for all the blessings in her life.
-There was nothing quite like being on her boat in Lake Tashmoo watching the sunset with her best friends and her family. She would quite often remark "How lucky are we"
Survivors include her husband Richard; her children Alexander Pelletier and his wife Celia Bellaloui, and Rachel Pelletier and her husband Alec Desmond; her siblings Dwight D. Meyer, and Jennifer Meyer-Feeney and her husband James; her sister-in-law Carole Meyer; and her nieces and nephews Jay, Megan, William, Michael, and Lauren.
She is predeceased by her brother, A. Gregory Meyer.
On Saturday June 17th a celebration of Kim's life will take place at the Saunders-Dwyer Mattapoisett Home for Funerals, 50 County Rd., Mattapoisett, MA. Family welcomes visitors from 1 to 5 PM. We invite you to wear colorful clothing to celebrate Kim's joy of life. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Kim can be made to the Buzzards Bay Coalition.

After leaving the area that her PT practiced - she treated my issues and really did make it possible for me to keep moving. I met her when I joined her gym! Many years later when I was having an awful response to some of those original issues I was 'back' near her office for a visit with my family. I called - please help! As was her commitment to all her patients - come right now! She was very special with a true and lasting commitment to her art/science and her patients. She will be missed!

I am brokenhearted. I have known Kim since she ran a spa in the 1980s. The things she taught me about a healthy body and a healthy mind have stayed with me all these years and I often think of her when I work out. I shall miss her dearly. Love to Richard.

I have known Kim basically my entire life being a couple of years younger than her. We both spent time on Point Connett during the Summers where kids grew up playing games, boating and swimming all day long. I recall how much fun it was competing against Kim because of her friendly competitive nature and her beaming smile. It made losing to her in tennis or ping pong (something that happened very often) more bearable. Fortunately, I played pickleball with Kim when she was just starting out in the game so I got to beat her a few times and even then she was smiling and graceful in defeat. This just proved to me once again how awesome a person she was and the depth of her character. Thankfully I have lots of fond memories of Kim because she will be sorely missed by us down on Point Connett.

I was fortunate to meet Kim after moving to the area a yr ago. She was such a pleasant person that enjoyed a good laugh and always had time to listen. It always made me feel good to see her and her beautiful smile at the pickleball courts. Kim was an excellent pickleball player who enjoyed the journey of getting better. She never told me about what she was going through and the fact that she made time for me, says a lot. I will miss her! Prayers to the family!
