She and her business partner, Emily Steenbergh started Malama Speech Services which serves the school districts throughout the Hawaiian Islands. She loved her students, many with severe disabilities, working with parents, and a team of professionals to teach skills to help these children succeed in life.
Kim and Nic realized their dream of living in a tropical paradise in Hawaii. Surfing, fishing, walking on the beach, and watching beautiful sunsets were some of their favorite times together. They traveled many places together; Jamaica, Costa Rica, Mexico, and Kim herself was an intrepid traveler living and working in Seoul, S.

Kimberly lived up to her middle name. She brought joy to all who knew her, and made friends wherever she went. She had a generous and loving spirit and had the ability to bring friends and family together, whom she cherished as the most precious gifts in life.
The family would like to thank Hospice of Spokane. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Charity of your choice in honor of Kim.
