Kimberly Ann Tutton Whitehead, loving wife and adored mother, went to heaven on September 3, 2020. Kim was born on April 7, 1969, in Greer, South Carolina. Kim met her Prince Charming, Josh, almost 20 years ago. Kim loved all things Disney, but nothing more than she loved her heavenly Father. Kim poured Jesus into so many and was a blessing to countless people. She was a beloved school teacher for over 20 years and cherished every student. Art was a passion of hers, and she delighted in sharing that gift with family and friends. She loved playing the piano and had the pleasure of teaching piano to many students. While she loved art, teaching, and Disney, they all paled in comparison to her love for her two greatest passions, her children, Hayden and Madison. Being a mother to them was truly her greatest joy in life, and she and Josh worked to instill a great faith in them.
A funeral service will be held on Sunday, September 6, 2020, at Faith Promise Church, Pellissippi Campus, 10740 Faith Promise Lane, at 5:00 pm. For our family and friends who cannot attend, the service can be viewed online at faithpromise.org. Family graveside service on Tuesday, September 8, 2020.
