Kimberly is preceded in death by her parents and carried a great deal of love for them both. She is survived by her loving partner, Johnie Gall, Willow Springs, MO; daughter, Jami Corrine (Sickmeier) Bradshaw and husband, Daniel, and two grandsons, Evan and Kian Bradshaw, all of Birch Tree, MO; son, James Monroe Sickmeier, Jr., grandson, Tamrin Sickmeier,and tobias gizmo sickmeier and granddaughter, Zailyn korine elaine Sickmeier, all of Willow Springs, MO. Kimberly is also survived by two sisters, Tracey Fritz and husband, Carl, Gerald, MO and Alysa Raymond and husband, Patrick, Grain Valley, MO; also many nieces, nephews, and friends.

Kimberly loved her position as a stay-at-home mother to Jami and Jimmy. She was a wonderful mother and grandmother. She was also known as "Mom" to many. She shared her motherly love and compassion to any and all that needed her and welcomed anyone into her heart with open arms.

One of Kim's favorite things to do was smile and laugh, which she did often, and to help brighten someone's day was a gift that she possessed like no other. Kimberly was a blessing to anyone who was fortunate enough to meet her, and touched the lives of so many and never asked for anything in return. She created her own special place in all of our hearts that only she could fill. Family and friends meant everything to her.

She was loved by many and will be greatly missed by all.
