Kimberley Annabelle Pearce was born in Telford on the 31st March, 1991 to her loving parents, Sharon and David. She was the best little sister imaginable to Steve, Sarah, Tina, Daniel, and the late Paul. In 2017, she met the love of her life, Andrew, whom she was excited to marry in April 2022. She was an adoring aunt to Amelia, Kayla, Evan, Astrid and Liana, and a beloved friend.

Attaining her First Class BA (Hons) degree in Film Studies at Anglia Ruskin University in 2013, Kim went on to become a talented Multimedia Designer for the NHS. She was an esteemed colleague in all roles, but especially her current role as HR Communications and Digital Engagement Officer at Lincoln University. Always excellent and driven, Kim was studying for her Criminology and Criminal Psychology Masters with the University of Essex. Despite being incredibly unwell, she was smashing the course and is set to be deservedly honoured with a posthumous award.

Kim brought meaning and value to life and the lives of so many of us. She had too many wonderful attributes to squeeze in here. But to name a few: she was a strength and an inspiration, emboldening and cheering on the people she cared about; wonderfully silly company, enriching us with her sense of fun and laughter; and never wavering in her loving, down-to-earth, generous nature.
