Kimberly Sue Willey, 57, of Glencoe, Alabama, passed away peacefully on November 13, 2025. Kimberly was a devoted wife, loving mother and a source of strength, comfort and compassion for everyone blessed to know her. Her passing leaves a void her family will never truly fill.
Kimberly has a heart for nurturing others. She loved to bake, filling her home with the comforting smells of fresh treats and the kind of warmth that only MiMi's kitchen could bring. She adored her pets and cared for them with the same tenderness she offered her family.
Kimberly's background in cosmetology brought a special gift in making others feel a mirror of her beauty. She lovingly cut and styled her family and friends hair for years, turning everyday moments into ones filled with connection and laughter. Her family treasures those memories and the way she made even these simple acts feel so special.
Kimberly believed in God and in the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Her family takes deep peace in knowing she is now in heaven, restored and surrounded by love.
Kimberly is preceded in death by her parents, Bruce and Eilen Coxson, whom she loved dearly. She is survived by her husband Ray; her children Jessyca, Brandon (Leslie), Raquel (Dylan) and Clayton (Cody); her grandchildren Caydence, Keeton, Layton (Saydee), Lexi (Devin) and Allyssa (Tyler); great grandchildren Waylon and Willow; along with a host of siblings, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews and extended relatives, and friends each of whom brought her tremendous joy and each of whom felt deeply the warmth and love she gave so freely.
Known for her kindness, grace, humor, beauty and love for her family, Kimberly leaves behind a legacy of compassion and warmth that will continue to shine through the lives of those that she touched.
