Kimberly was born in Waterville July 17, 1973 to Earl. L. Young and Linda Stewart Young. She attended elementary school in Pennsylvania and graduated from Lawrence High School.

Kim became disabled in 2017 as a result of complications from spinal surgery. Since becoming disabled, Kim has faced many medical issues. She was a very strong person, always tried to stay positive, and did her best.

Prior to becoming disabled, Kim worked at Inland Hospital for several years and later worked providing care to people with disabilities both in residential and in the home setting. Kim loved taking care of people. She especially loved being a mother to her children, Cody and Emily. She always put her children and others first.

Kim had a great sense of humor and still enjoyed dressing up on Halloween to treat her great-nephews, Connor and Owen. She loved animals and will be sadly missed by her two dogs. She cherished the holidays and any time she could spend with family.

Kimberly is survived by her children, Cody and Emily Mckenna; and her special friend, Tessa Nash. She is also survived by her sister, Kathy Ware and her partner Carl Clarke, her sister, Sue Dow and her husband Dan and two brothers, Randall and Ronald Young; a very special niece, Chelsea Davis and her husband Austin, and their two children Connor and Owen; her best friend, Kelly Machado and three very special friends who took care of her at home, Kim Souliere, Theresa Phillips, and Tammy Violette.
