Kim started elementary in Levan, Utah and later graduated in Nephi. He continued his education to become a machinist. His machinist work brought him to the beautiful red hills of Kanab, Utah with a job at Kaibab and later working for Smith Pattern.
Kim enjoyed working with his hands, whether it was working on vehicles or tinkering with everything with his kids, grandkids, and neighbors. Creating things with wood was another one of his passions. He made cradles, picture frames, and craft items.
While living in Kanab, he enjoyed the outdoors, hunting, camping and 4 wheeling with family and friends. Kim loved watching his kids and supporting them in everything they did, from sports to rescuing them at any hour of the night, no matter where they were, he was always there.
A highlight of Kim’s life was his grandkids and great grandkids. He enjoyed every moment with each one of them. Him and Alleen supported them no matter which direction or miles away, the kids knew they would always be there in the stands cheering them on.
