of Harrison, AR

October 20, 1965 - February 11, 2021

On February 11, 2021, just before midnight, Kim finished the last leg of her earthly journey and entered into the presence of the Lord. She peacefully left us to be with her Saviour and all those who have gone before her.

Kim was born in Oak Grove, Louisiana on October 20, 1965, to Hilton. D. and Mary Frances (Nece) West, and only a short time later the family made their way to northwest Arkansas settling in Harrison. Kim entered the Harrison School System where she completed her education. Prior to graduating, she met Bobby Brown; Kim was a sophomore, Bob a senior. They began dating and after Kim graduated they married. In 1985, their oldest daughter, Heather, arrived, and then in 1990 they completed their family with Holley.

Kim worked in various fields in Harrison for many years, but in the past few years, it became evident where her passion really was, not in the work of man, but in the work of the Lord. This could be seen first in her family; how she poured herself into Heather and Holley as well as "Nanny's babies", Aniston, Jersey, Westyn, Reagan, and Grace; next, her faithful service alongside her husband at Olvey Bible Church; and then her warrior spirit and desire to minister with her Higher Ground family; and finally the obvious talent that God had given her to be used as "His hands and feet" with her paintings. She truly blessed all who knew her.

Kim is survived by her loving husband, Bobby Brown; her daughters and sons-in-law, Heather and David Patrick and Holley and Riley Shelton; her sisters and brother-in-law, Kelley and Tim Stretton and Laura West; her five grandchildren, Aniston Bolton, Jersey Bolton, Grace Patrick, Westyn Shelton, and Reagan Shelton; her father, Hilton West and his wife Leah; a host of other family; and many, many dear friends.

Kim did ask God to use her in a very specific way to start this New Year; to witness the dignity and grace that she displayed at the end of her time here, we believe, on February 11th. God said, ''Well Done Kimmie''.
